    A user reported warnings in ath5k due to transmitting frames with no
    rates set up.  The frames were Mesh PERR frames, and some debugging
    showed an empty control block with just the vif pointer:

    Set the IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_NEED_TXPROCESSING flag to ensure that
    rate control gets run before the frame is sent.
