Subject[PATCH 4.18 14/44] mac80211: allocate TXQs for active monitor interfaces
Date
4.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Felix Fietkau <nbd@nbd.name>

commit 8105f9b8a8879bff7f1d43d0720c993a99c9d135 upstream.

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")
