The wifi driver can decide to not provide parts of the station info. For example, the expected throughput of the station can be omitted when the used rate control doesn't provide this kind of information.
The B.A.T.M.A.N. V implementation must therefore check the filled bitfield before it tries to access the expected_throughput of the returned station_info.
