Argh...  Come on.  I don't want to have to break out the C standard to
see if this is defined behavior and where the sequence points are.  A
pre-op would be clear but the most clear thing is to write it like this:

	priv->top_ofdm_basic_rate = pos ? (pos - 1) : RATE_24M;

                                         ^^^^^
Same.
