It looks like commit 6d810f10 changed the behavior.
The station addition notification is now passed to the driver before the
supported rates are updated for the peer (which happens via ieee80211_rx_bss_info()).
Drivers which offload rate control to the firmware but depend on mac80211 for
station management would be affected, I think.
