I'm not sure you should do this unconditionally with the
vif->bss_conf.basic_rates, for example this code is also used with TDLS
and I have no idea what that should be there -- since we didn't add
anything before maybe it should indeed not have any basic rate bits?

Do you want us to add a check if the vif.type is mesh point or have an
extra parameter indicating the need for basic rates? What approach
would you suggest?

I'd probably say add an argument since you might want to actually set
the basic rate bits in some other cases too.
