wlcore: AP mode - send non-data packets with basic rates
This solves interoperability issues with peer that don't seem to "hear" management packets transmitted in higher rates. Based on a previous patch by Igal Chernobelsky. Cc: Igal Chernobelsky <igalc@ti.com> Signed-off-by: Arik Nemtsov <arik@wizery.com> Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <luca@coelho.fi>
