+Subject: [PATCH] rt2x00: Fix TX rate short preamble detection
+
+Mac80211 provides 2 structures to handle bitrates, namely
+ieee80211_rate and ieee80211_tx_rate. To determine the short preamble
+mode for an outgoing frame, the flag IEEE80211_TX_RC_USE_SHORT_PREAMBLE
+must be checked on ieee80211_tx_rate and not ieee80211_rate (which rt2x00 did).
+
+This fixes a regression which was triggered in 2.6.29-rcX as reported by Chris Clayton.
