Multiple virtual AP interfaces can currently try
to use different beacon intervals, but that just
leads to problems since it won't actually be done
that way by drivers. Return an error in this case
to make sure it won't be done wrong.

I think there is no problem with having different beacon
intervals, as long as they are all a multiple of
the smallest interval and the driver does things properly.

I'm not sure ath9k or ath5k currently supports this properly,
but there was a patch floating around for a while that did
this for ath9k I think...

Thanks,
Ben
