    mac80211: Do not use sizeof() on pointer type · 98a1f828

    The rate_control_cap_mask() function takes a parameter mcs_mask, which
    GCC will take to be u8 * even though it was declared with a fixed size.
    This causes the following warning:
    
    	net/mac80211/rate.c: In function 'rate_control_cap_mask':
    	net/mac80211/rate.c:719:25: warning: 'sizeof' on array function parameter 'mcs_mask' will return size of 'u8 * {aka unsigned char *}' [-Wsizeof-array-argument]
    	   for (i = 0; i < sizeof(mcs_mask); i++)
    	                         ^
    	net/mac80211/rate.c:684:10: note: declared here
    	       u8 mcs_mask[IEEE80211_HT_MCS_MASK_LEN],
    	          ^
    
    This can be easily fixed by using the IEEE80211_HT_MCS_MASK_LEN directly
    within the loop condition.
