Problem with sending pkt on a monitor port

[Ben Greear <greearb@candelatech.com>]

This is with a modified 4.16.18+ kernel, though the code in question
is from 2011, so this is not new...

I am attempting to use radiotap packet injection on a monitor port.

In the ieee80211_monitor_start_xmit method, before this code below
runs, sdata is 'moni6a', my monitor port.  But, since I have a
station wlan1 with the same MAC address, then when this code is
completed, stdata becomes wlan1.

Ath10k has all sorts of issues transmitting raw frames, and sending on
the wrong vdev only makes it even more broken!

If user-space binds a socket to a monitor vdev and transmits a frame,
why would we want to change the vdev here?

	list_for_each_entry_rcu(tmp_sdata, &local->interfaces, list) {
		if (!ieee80211_sdata_running(tmp_sdata))
			continue;
		if (tmp_sdata->vif.type == NL80211_IFTYPE_MONITOR ||
		    tmp_sdata->vif.type == NL80211_IFTYPE_AP_VLAN ||
		    tmp_sdata->vif.type == NL80211_IFTYPE_WDS)
			continue;
		if (ether_addr_equal(tmp_sdata->vif.addr, hdr->addr2)) {
			sdata = tmp_sdata;
			break;
		}
	}

Thanks,
Ben
