It is checked in add_interface, but there it is easily replaced with
a check of priv->vif. If that information should become necessary,
it is available in vif->type anyway.
It is also checked in led_turn_on and led_turn_off, where I made the
substitutions as described above. Of course, these checks seem to
have been incorrect since the driver was using NL80211_IFTYPE_MONITOR
to indicate no interface rather than NL80211_IFTYPE_UNSPECIFIED.
Anyway, I think these checks may be extraneous...?
