[PATCH 2/5] mac80211: Set txrc.bss to true for OCB interfaces

[PATCH 2/5] mac80211: Set txrc.bss to true for OCB interfaces

[Bertold Van den Bergh]

To make mac80211 accept the multicast rate requested by the user the
rate control should be told that it is operating in BSS mode.
Without this, the default rate is selected in rate_control_send_low
(!pubsta and !txrc->bss)

Applied 1 and 2, although the 'bss' variable is somewhat misnamed I
guess.
