iwlegacy: fix BUG_ON(info->control.rates[0].idx < 0)

When trying to connect to 5GHz we can provide negative index to
mac80211 what trigger BUG_ON. Reason of iwl-3945-rs malfunction
on 5GHz is unknown and needs further investigation. For now, to
do not trigger a bug, correct value and just print WARNING.
