For peers with HT/VHT, this leaves rx_nss at 0 instead of the correct value, causing drivers to use incorrect rate scaling parameters. The root cause is that the commit below moved NSS initialisation out of rate_control_rate_init() into explicit call sites, but missing the rates_updated path in ieee80211_update_sta_info(). Fix this by calling ieee80211_sta_init_nss_bw_capa() before rate_control_rate_init() when peer capabilities are updated, consistent with the other IBSS call sites added by that commit.
