/**
* DOC: Virtual interface / concurrency capabilities
*
* Some devices are able to operate with virtual MACs, they can have
* more than one virtual interface. The capability handling for this
* is a bit complex though, as there may be a number of restrictions
* on the types of concurrency that are supported.
*
* To start with, each device supports the interface types listed in
* the %NL80211_ATTR_SUPPORTED_IFTYPES attribute, but by listing the
* types there no concurrency is implied.
*
* Once concurrency is desired, more attributes must be observed:
* To start with, since some interface types are purely managed in
* software, like the AP-VLAN type in mac80211 for example, there's
* an additional list of these, they can be added at any time and
* are only restricted by some semantic restrictions (e.g. AP-VLAN
* cannot be added without a corresponding AP interface). This list
* is exported in the %NL80211_ATTR_SOFTWARE_IFTYPES attribute.
*
* Further, the list of supported combinations is exported. This is
* in the %NL80211_ATTR_INTERFACE_COMBINATIONS attribute. Basically,
* it exports a list of "groups", and at any point in time the
* interfaces that are currently active must fall into any one of
* the advertised groups. Within each group, there are restrictions
* on the number of interfaces of different types that are supported
* and also the number of different channels, along with potentially
* some other restrictions. See &enum nl80211_if_combination_attrs.
*
* All together, these attributes define the concurrency of virtual
* interfaces that a given device supports.
