Subject: [PATCH 4.9 051/222] ath9k: add back support for using active monitor interfaces for tx99

From: Felix Fietkau <nbd@....name>

[ Upstream commit 6df0580be8bc30803c4d8b2ed9c2230a2740c795 ]

Various documented examples on how to set up tx99 with ath9k rely
on setting up a regular monitor interface for setting the channel.
My previous patch "ath9k: fix tx99 with monitor mode interface" made
it possible to set it up this way again. However, it was removing support
for using an active monitor interface, which is required for controlling
the bitrate as well, since the bitrate is not passed down with a regular
monitor interface.

This patch partially reverts the previous one, but keeps support for using
a regular monitor interface to keep documented steps working in cases
where the bitrate does not matter
