Bob Copeland 1d6741d864 mac80211: mesh: fix premature update of rc stats 
The mesh_neighbour_update() function, queued via beacon rx, can race with
userspace creating the same station.  If the station already exists by the
time mesh_neighbour_update() is called, the function wrongly assumes rate
control has been initialized and calls rate_control_rate_update(), which
in turn calls into the driver.

Updating the rate control before it has been initialized can cause a
crash in some drivers, for example this firmware crash in ath10k due
to sta->rx_nss being 0:

Fix this by checking whether the sta has already initialized rate control
using the flag for that purpose.  We can also drop the unnecessary insert
parameter here.
