  10 This reverts commit 647862eb60c324015ea31293cc052558b5185ca4.
  11
  12 The second check of device_ap_sme looks like duplicated, but it isn't
  13 actually. The trick is nl80211_create_monitor_interface may change that
  14 variable value and the second evaluation may give a different result.
  15
  16 This definitely isn't a very clear code, but that change caused a
  17 regression for drivers that:
  18 1) Don't report NL80211_ATTR_DEVICE_AP_SME
  19 2) Don't support monitor mode
  20 3) Don't support subscribing for PROBE_REQ and/or ACTION frames
  21 like brcmfmac. With such drivers hostapd doesn't start anymore.
