[ Upstream commit 47d0cd6bccb4604192633cc8d29511e85d811fc0 ]
While associating, firmware needs to know peer's receive capability to calculate its own VHT transmit MCS, currently host sends this information to firmware via mcs->rx_mcs_set field, this is wrong as firmware actually takes it from mcs->tx_mcs_set field. Till now there is no failure seen due to this, most likely because almost all peers are advertising the same capability for both transmit and receive. Swap the assignment to fix it.
Besides, rate control mask is meant to limit our own transmit MCS, hence need to go via mcs->tx_mcs_set field. With the aforementioned swapping done, change is needed as well to apply it to the peer's receive capability rather than transmit capability.
