It's not so hard though, something like this:

void rtl_get_tcb_desc(struct ieee80211_hw *hw,

	struct rtl_priv *rtlpriv = rtl_priv(hw);
	struct rtl_mac *rtlmac = rtl_mac(rtl_priv(hw));
	struct ieee80211_hdr *hdr = rtl_get_hdr(skb);
	struct rtl_sta_info *sta_entry =
		(sta ? (struct rtl_sta_info *)sta->drv_priv : NULL);

	__le16 fc = rtl_get_fc(skb);

	tcb_desc->hw_rate = _rtl_get_tx_hw_rate(hw, info);

	if (rtl_is_tx_report_skb(hw, skb))

	}

	if (sta && (sta->ht_cap.ht_supported)) {

	}

	if (rtlmac->mode == WIRELESS_MODE_B)

}

(Compeletely untested and most probably wrong, just illustration.)
