The H2C (host to card) command which tells the firmware which TX rates
it can use is slightly wrong. Fix the order of the bytes.

Also put the macid in the command (relevant for AP mode).

This was tested with RTL8192CU. It also affects the RTL8723AU.

Can you add test results before/after this patch?

I wonder if RTL8192CU and RTL8723AU use different command format, because
vendor driver of RTL8192CU seems use different command ID (w/o BIT(7)), see below.

rtl8xxxu: H2C_SET_RATE_MASK = (6 | H2C_EXT)
vendor driver of 8192cu: MACID_CONFIG_EID=6

Can you confirm if command "(6 | BIT(7))" works on 8192cu?
Maybe, it only works on 8723au? (this chip is too old, I don't have more info about it)

They use the same format, the vendor drivers just add BIT(7)
in rtl8192c_FillH2CCmd function:

https://github.com/lwfinger/rtl8192cu/blob/52b20929a8f68d5fbae38e6e253f75b713258487/hal/rtl8192c_cmd.c#L114

Please ignore this patch. I made a mistake: the order of the
bytes in the struct is weird, but it is correct for rtl8xxxu.
rtl8xxxu_gen1_h2c_cmd is aware of the changed order.
