In struct ieee80211_tx_info, control.vif pointer and rate_driver_data[0] falls on the same place, depending on the union usage. During the whole TX process, the union is referred to as a control struct, which holds the vif that is later used in the tx flow, especially in order to derive the used tx power. Referring direcly to rate_driver_data[0] and assigning a value to it, overwrites the vif pointer, hence making all later references irrelevant. Moreover, rate_driver_data[0] isn't used later in the flow in order to retrieve the channel that it is pointing to.
