Hi Guys,

    rc80211-pid: fix rate adjustment

    Merge rate_control_pid_shift_adjust() to rate_control_pid_adjust_rate()
    in order to make the learning algorithm aware of constraints on rates. Also
    add some comments and rename variables.

    This fixes a bug which prevented 802.11b/g non-AP STAs from working with
    802.11b only AP STAs.

    This patch was originally destined for 2.6.26, and is being backported
    to fix a user reported problem in post-2.6.24 kernels.
