In commit0d9c2beed1("wifi: mac80211: fix monitor channel with chanctx emulation") I changed mac80211 to always have an internal monitor_sdata to have something to have the chanctx bound to. However, if the driver didn't also have the WANT_MONITOR flag this would cause mac80211 to allocate it without telling the driver (which was intentional) but also use it for later APIs to the driver without it ever having known about it which was _not_ intentional. Check through the code and only use the monitor_sdata in the relevant places (TX, MU-MIMO follow settings, TX power, and interface iteration) when the WANT_MONITOR flag is set.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
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.
