LinuxKPI: 802.11: make synching from HT more resilient
During testing I hit a case where htcap->mcs.rx_mask[0,1] were zero.
This should not happen as that would mean we are not supporting HT.
After adding extra caution for debugging I could no longer reproduce
the case.
So just to deal with the eventuality make synching from HT more
resilient by checking that we have nss > 0 or otherwise disable
HT operations.
Move setting the bandwidth below this check to not alter it in
case of the now early return.
