[PATCH] mac80211: Disable MCS > 7 in minstrel_ht when STA uses static SMPS

[Helmut Schaa <helmut.schaa@googlemail.com>]

Disable multi stream rates (MCS > 7) when a STA is in static SMPS mode
since it has only one active rx chain. Hence, it doesn't even make
sense to sample multi stream rates.

I haven't found a STA that makes use of static SMPS, so this is only compile tested.
