This is the style I prefer (getting rid of the explicit == true)

-	if ((r8712_is_cckratesonly_included(pnetwork->network.
-	     SupportedRates)) == true) {
+	if (r8712_is_cckratesonly_included(pnetwork->network.rates)) {
 		if (ht_cap == true)
 			snprintf(iwe.u.name, IFNAMSIZ, "IEEE 802.11bn");
 		else
 			snprintf(iwe.u.name, IFNAMSIZ, "IEEE 802.11b");
-	} else if ((r8712_is_cckrates_included(pnetwork->network.
-		    SupportedRates)) == true) {
+	} else if (r8712_is_cckrates_included(pnetwork->network.rates)) {
 		if (ht_cap == true)
 			snprintf(iwe.u.name, IFNAMSIZ, "IEEE 802.11bgn");

Does that look ok?
If we keep the "== true" and the extra set of parentheses, the "else if" case goes over 80 lines.
I will happily submit the change as follow up patch if that is too much to change at once.
