Question on "ath10k: document ofdm/5ghz rate offset with a macro"

While porting some patches forward, I notice the change below
that renamed the method to "ath10k_mac_sta_has_ofdm_only".  But,
that is not really what that is checking, since it just throws
away the CCK rates (and they might have been there).

Maybe it should just be "ath10k_mac_sta_has_ofdm()" ?

Thanks,
Ben



  ath10k: document ofdm/5ghz rate offset with a macro

     Don't use literal values for offsets. While at it
     rename a function so it is more clear what it
     checks for.

     This finally takes care of the last magic
     5GHz/OFDM offset.
