My fault, this was a leftover from my initial patch for the dscape update.
I actually had written some code to indeed allow multiple monitor
mode interfaces. But I spotted some problems with it, and removed the code
and planned to rewrite it later after I had send this code series.
I'll create a quick patch to correctly set the monitor_during_oper variable,
because the patch for correct monitor mode behaviour might take some time.
