While scanning, it is possible that beacon and probe response frames are
received on other band than configured to the driver. In rx status
handling this has caused "Unsupported RX rate from HW" warnings. This
patch changes the wl1271_rate_to_index function to take the band of the
received frame as a parameter instead of using value configuret to
wl->band.

Ok, I checked this with a beagle board and it looks like that it's
caused by the firmware marking some packets received during scanning as
being received from 5 GHz band. After some testing I have pinpointed the
problem being caused by the firmware nvs file used. It's just annoying
that those errors are being emitted when scanning. I suppose that the
message could be changed from "ERROR" to "WARNING".

Hmmm... I'm now getting loads of these:
[ 465.265594] wl1271: ERROR Unsupported RX rate from HW: 15
...when scanning with my beagle board. I have also included the 11n
patches by Shahar and Ido's "optimizations and fixes".
Teemu, I had to merge your patch on top of Ido's and Shahar's patches.
Can you check your patch in the wl12xx/master tree and confirm that it
is okay? To me it looks good, but you never know ;)
