This reverts commit d333322361e7 ("mac80211: do not use low data rates for
data frames with no ack flag").
Returning false early in rate_control_send_low breaks sending broadcast
packets, since rate control will not select a rate for it.
Before re-introducing a fixed version of this patch, we should probably also
make some changes to rate control to be more conservative in selecting rates
for no-ack packets and also prevent using probing rates on them, since we won't
get any feedback.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
