Those combinations are called 'columns'. When we switch to a new column, we first need to check if this column has a suitable rate, if not, we can't try it. This means we must not erase the statistics we gathered for the previous column until we are sure that we are indeed switching column. The code that tries to switch to a new column first sets a whole bunch of things for the new column, and only then checks that we can find suitable rates in that column. While doing that, the code mistakenly erased the rate statistics. This code was right until struct iwl_scale_tbl_info grew up for TPC. Fix this to make sure we don't erase the rate statistics until we are sure that we can indeed switch to the new column. Note that this bug is really harmless since it causes a change in the behavior only when we can't find any rate in the new column which should really not happen. In the case we do find a suitable we reset the rate statistics a few lines later anyway.
