Different userspace programs interpreted HWSIM_ATTR_ADDR_TRANSMITTER and HWSIM_ATTR_ADDR_RECEIVER differently: some expected it to be an unchanging hardware address that is tied to the radio despite which address is configured on the interface, while others expected to be a copy of the address in the frame (the configured address). The intent of the original authors is unclear. The latter interpretation doesn't really work properly with multiple vifs and broadcast frames. Also, as the TA is already in the frame, userspace programs can actually support configured addresses in the former interpretation by mapping between them and the supplied HWSIM_ATTR_ADDR_TRANSMITTER. So, in the interest of API stability, revert to the previous mode of operation and going forward use the former interpretation.
