[PATCH v6 2/3] wifi: ath12k: properly handling the state variables of monitor mode

[Kang Yang <quic_kangyang@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Now monitor mode has some status variables, such as monitor_started,
monitor_vdev_created. They are not always handled correctly.

For monitor_started, it should be true when driver works in monitor
mode, and should be false at other times.

For monitor_vdev_id, it should be -1 when driver doesn't work in monitor
mode.

For monitor_vdev_created, it should be true after monitor vdev is
created successfully and should be false at other times.

For monitor_conf_enabled, it should be true when mac80211 sets
IEEE80211_CONF_MONITOR, and should be false at other times.

Handle those state variables according to above descriptions.

Tested-on: WCN7850 hw2.0 PCI WLAN.HMT.1.0.c5-00481-QCAHMTSWPL_V1.0_V2.0_SILICONZ-3
