Hello.

The following woe happened on my home router running as a Wi-Fi AP with
MT7612:

```

```

`faddr2line` says it is this:

```
 430 int
 431 minstrel_ht_get_tp_avg(struct minstrel_ht_sta *mi, int group, int rate,
 432                int prob_avg)
 433 {
…
 435     unsigned int ampdu_len = 1;
…
 441     if (minstrel_ht_is_legacy_group(group))
…
 443     else
 444         ampdu_len = minstrel_ht_avg_ampdu_len(mi);
…
 446     nsecs = 1000 * overhead / ampdu_len;
         ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
```

So, it seems `minstrel_ht_avg_ampdu_len()` can return 0, which is not
really legitimate.

Looking at `minstrel_ht_avg_ampdu_len()`, I see the following:

```
16:#define MINSTREL_SCALE  12
…
18:#define MINSTREL_TRUNC(val) ((val) >> MINSTREL_SCALE)
```

```
 401 static unsigned int
 402 minstrel_ht_avg_ampdu_len(struct minstrel_ht_sta *mi)
 403 {
…
 406     if (mi->avg_ampdu_len)
 407         return MINSTREL_TRUNC(mi->avg_ampdu_len);
```

So, likely, `mi->avg_ampdu_len` is non-zero, but it's too small, hence
right bitshift makes it zero.

Should there be some protection against such a situation?

Felix, could you maybe check this? Looks like you were the last one to
overhaul that part of code.

Thanks!
