wifi: mt76: adjust BSS conf pointer handling

Passing a BSS conf pointer to mt76_connac2_mac_tx_rate_val() currently has
two inconsistencies.

When called from mt76_connac2_mac_write_txwi(), BSS conf is got by
dereferencing a vif pointer.  A NULL vif isn't accounted for though the
function itself supposes it to be NULL and tries to handle this case in
previous checks.  This looks like a cosmetic change since the drivers
calling the function (namely, mt7915 and mt7921) set WANT_MONITOR_VIF flag
so judging by info->control.vif initialization inside ieee80211_tx_*()
routines it can't actually come as NULL here.

The same holds for the BSS conf pointer handling inside
mt76_connac2_mac_tx_rate_val().  It is dereferenced before being checked
for NULL.  The function supposes to handle the case so reorder the check
and dereference of the pointer.  Again, this looks like a syntax issue
only.
