Some HW/driver can support passing ethernet rx decap frames and raw 802.11 frames for the monitor interface concurrently and through separately calls to ieee80211_rx_napi(). Also packets to monitor interface doesnt have RX_FLAG_8023 set and can set RX_FLAG_ONLY_MONITOR to pass them to monitor interface exclusively. Such drivers can enable the SUPPORTS_CONC_MON_RX_DECAP flag to allow this using ethernet decap offload while monitor interface is active. Currently the RX DECAP Offload gets disabled when a monitor interface is up.
