Rate control of the vendor driver seems to work just fine (or at least
better as minstrel_ht).
Iow: minstrel_ht doesn't meet the requirements of ralink chipsets :-).
But this is not the only problem of rt2800usb. As long as a driver has
the ability to damage a device [1], there is something more basically
broken!
