The problem is not on the AP side, the client sends with MCS32 because it's
the last MCS in ni_htrates array of AP and the connection is good. AMRR
increases the Tx rate to AP till MCS32 and then the client sends with MCS32.
I changed AMRR a bit so it would skip MCS32 and it works fine now. I had to
change AMRR anyway, because ieee80211_amrr.c doesn't support HT nodes.
