Here, it would seem to make more sense to simply give the necessary per-
interface information to the driver? Drivers likely have more
restrictions and will need less complex data structures (or just
iteration) to figure out what's eventually needed for each hw etc.

Some drivers might anyway even have different filters per interface,
even if they're operating on the same channel.
