State-Changed-Why:
You problem has been caused by the fact that previously driver required that
at least one of the supported frame types should be enabled in the kernel
config. If neither of them has been enabled then clone() function is not
called and as a result you don't see any of those sub-interfaces. This
problem has not been happening with module since module's makefile were enabling
all of those frame types silently.
I've fixed the problem, so that from now on if none of frame types is enabled
explicitly then support for all of them will be compiled into the kernel.
Thank you for reporting!
