From: Mohammed Shafi Shajakhan <mohammed@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
All these checks will be handled by cfg80211 based on
the interface combination advertized. For instance
we support 8 beacon while we advertize maximum 8
beaconing interface in the interface combination
support, also cfg80211 will take care of not allowing
us to add an interface that is not supported by the
driver, so as if the change_interface changes the
old interface to a beaconing interface where we had
reached the maximum number of beacoing interface
