When multiple radios are advertised as a single wiphy which
supports various bands, vdev creation for the vif is deferred
until channel is assigned to it.
If a remain on channel(RoC) request is received from mac80211,
select the corresponding radio(ar) based on channel and create
a vdev on that radio to initiate an RoC scan.
Note that on RoC completion this vdev is not deleted. If a new
RoC/hw scan request is seen on that same vif for a different band the
vdev will be deleted and created on the new radio supporting the
request.
Also if the RoC scan is requested when the vdev is in started state,
no switching to new radio is allowed and RoC request can be accepted
only on channels within same radio.

I wonder if -EBUSY would be more descriptive here? I changed to that in
the pending branch.

Do we really want to continue if vdev_delete() fails? In the pending
branch I added 'return ret' here and modified the warning message a bit.

Also here I modified the warning message a bit.

Yeah, landing here would mean that user has already started the
interface on a radio(ar) and now requesting RoC on a channel that
doesn't belong to it.
