This allows users to prevent a vif from affecting radios other than the configured ones. This can be useful in cases where e.g. an AP is running on one radio, and triggering a scan on another radio should not disturb it. Changing the allowed radios list for a vif is supported, but only while it is down. While it is possible to achieve the same by always explicitly specifying a frequency list for scan requests and ensuring that the wrong channel/band is never accidentally set on an unrelated interface, this change makes multi-radio wiphy setups a lot easier to deal with for CLI users. By itself, this patch only enforces the radio mask for scanning requests and remain-on-channel. Follow-up changes build on this to limit configured frequencies.

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.
