From: Luca Coelho <luciano.coelho@intel.com>

In some rare occasions, the firmware may let some frames with invalid
rates, such as CCK rates on the high band, come through.  This causes
the driver to issue a warning, but since this is a possible issue and
it's not really a bug in the driver, convert the warning into an
error.
