[PATCH v2] mac80211: allocate TXQs for active monitor interfaces

From: Felix Fietkau <nbd@nbd.name>
Date: 2018-09-22 22:29:45
Subsystem: mac80211, the rest · Maintainers: Johannes Berg, Linus Torvalds

Monitor mode interfaces with the active flag are passed down to the driver.
Drivers using TXQ expect that all interfaces have allocated TXQs before
they get added.

Fixes: 79af1f866193d ("mac80211: avoid allocating TXQs that won't be used")
