Peter Große 3a3713ec36 mac80211: Fix setting TX power on monitor interfaces
Instead of calling ieee80211_recalc_txpower on monitor interfaces
directly, call it using the virtual monitor interface, if one exists.

In case of a single monitor interface given, reject setting TX power,
if no virtual monitor interface exists.

That being checked, don't warn in ieee80211_bss_info_change_notify,
after setting TX power on a monitor interface.

Fixes warning:

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
