mac80211: minstrel: avoid accessing negative indices in rix_to_ndx()
If rix is not found in mi->r[], i will become -1 after the loop. This value is eventually used to access arrays, so we were accessing arrays with a negative index, which is obviously not what we want to do. This patch fixes this potential problem.
