Move the added check of the 'band' variable after the
initialization. Pointed out by clang with

drivers/staging/wfx/data_tx.c:34:19: warning: variable 'band' is uninitialized when used here [-Wuninitialized]
        if (rate->idx >= band->n_bitrates) {

Fixes: 868fd970e187 ("staging: wfx: improve robustness of wfx_get_hw_rate()")

Hello Arnd,

This patch has already been submitted[1]. I think it is going to be
applied to staging very soon.

Sorry for the disturbing.

Sorry for the delay, had to wait until -rc1 was out.

Now queued up in my tree.
