Once we reach the global limit, all the -1 passing caller get fail
becuase the iface check param (existing and new) is validated against
the global limit. since global limt as a sort of union of all per-radio
limits.

Ex:
Global iface = 6 (Radio iface 2GHz:4, 5GHz:4, 6GHz:6)


So far 6 iface created (Radio iface 2GHz:2, 5GHz:3, 6GHz:1)

In this case, new iface creation get fail because caller uses
ieee80211_check_combinations() with -1 as radio idx, so it checked
against global limit

Use the sum of the number of interfaces from each radio instead of the maximum.
