wifi: ath12k: Add memset and update default rate value in wmi tx completion
[ Upstream commit 9903c0986f782dfc511d7638b6f15fb6e8600cd3 ] When both AP/STA and monitor interfaces are enabled, ieee80211_tx_status() is invoked from two paths: the TX completion handler for data frames and the WMI TX completion handler for management frames. In the data path, the skb->cb is properly zeroed using memset, but in the WMI path, this step is missing. As a result, mac80211 encountered uninitialized (junk) values in skb->cb when generating the radiotap header for monitor mode, leading to invalid radiotap lengths. Hence, explicitly zero the status field in the skb->cb using memset in WMI TX completion path to ensure consistent and correct behavior during WMI tx completion path. Additionally, set info->status.rates[0].idx = -1 to indicate that no valid rate information is available, avoiding misinterpretation of garbage values.
