mac80211: rc80211_minstrel: remove variance / stddev calculation
When there are few packets (e.g. for sampling attempts), the exponentially weighted variance is usually vastly overestimated, making the resulting data essentially useless. As far as I know, there has not been any practical use for this, so let's not waste any cycles on it.
