While the MCS index reporting to mac80211 was indeed fixed by the patch, it did not take into account that the ath9k rate control algorithm was updating private tables based on this index and the index comes through the rate control API call, i.e., based on mac80211 TX status call. In addition, it looks like the "fix" to remove +1 from TX status 'count' field was not correct based on ieee80211_tx_status() implementation that counts the total of count values, but starting from -1, not 0. The TX status reporting for frames using MCS needs to be fixed somehow, but it does not look like there is any easy fix for the ath9k rate control algorithm, so the best option now seems to be to revert the change and bring it back once the rate control code is cleaned up to handle this better.
