[ Upstream commit 646262c71aca87bb66945933abe4e620796d6c5a ]
Don't call ieee80211_debugfs_recreate_netdev() for virtual monitor interface when deleting it.
The virtual monitor interface shouldn't have debugfs entries and trying to update them will *create* them on deletion.
And when the virtual monitor interface is created/destroyed multiple times we'll get warnings about debugfs name conflicts.
