Currently for MLO, sending out multicast frames on each link is handled by
mac80211 only when IEEE80211_HW_MLO_MCAST_MULTI_LINK_TX flag is not set.

Dynamic VLAN multicast traffic utilizes software encryption.
Due to this, mac80211 should handle transmitting multicast frames on
all links for multicast VLAN traffic.
