Some drivers (e.g. brcmfmac) may not support deleting virtual
interfaces. In such cases we can start AP interfaces once only. This can
be easily workarounded by allowing driver(s) to use all existing
interfaces.

Hi,
This patch allows me freely use BCM4366 with brcmfmac and multiple AP
interfaces. Unfortunately I don't know reason for having this limiration
in the first place. Do you know if my patch may break anything?
