PATCH 1/1 mac80211: fix monitor interface suspend crash regression

mac80211: cleanup generic suspend/resume procedures

removed check for deleting MONITOR and AP_VLAN when suspend. That can cause a crash (i.e. in iwlagn_mac_remove_interface()) since we remove interface in the driver that we did not add before.
