rate control algorithms concludes the rate as invalid with rate[i].idx < -1 , while they do also check for rate[i].count is non-zero. it would be safer to zero initialize the 'count' field. recently we had a ath9k rate control crash where the ath9k rate control in ath_tx_status assumed to check only for rate[i].count being non-zero in one instance and ended up in using invalid rate index for 'connection monitoring NULL func frames' which eventually lead to the crash. thanks to Pavel Roskin for fixing it and finding the root cause. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=768639 Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Cc: Pavel Roskin <proski@gnu.org> Signed-off-by: NMohammed Shafi Shajakhan <mohammed@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: NJohn W.
