+Subject: [PATCH] ath9k: fix tx99 with monitor mode interface
+
+Tx99 is typically configured via a monitor mode interface, which does
+not get added to the driver as a vif. Since the code currently expects
+a configured virtual interface for tx99, enabling tx99 via debugfs fails.
+Since the vif is not needed anyway, remove all checks for it.
