`systemd-udev` changes vif name to **rename4**.

0/~> sudo ip link set dev rename4  down
0/~> sudo ip link set dev rename4  address 02:aa:aa:aa:aa:aa
0/~> sudo ip link set dev rename4  up

For 1st VIF  `wpa_seekurjr1.conf` content:

~~~
network={
    ssid="SeekurJr1"
    key_mgmt=NONE
}
~~~

Run wpa_supplicant:

sudo wpa_supplicant -Dnl80211 -iwlan0 -c wpa_seekurjr1.conf
sudo dhclient -r wlan0
sudo dhclient wlan0


For second VIF `wpa_seekurjr2.conf` content:

~~~
network={
    ssid="SeekurJr"
    key_mgmt=NONE
}
~~~

Run wpa_supplicant:

sudo wpa_supplicant -Dnl80211 -irename4 -c wpa_seekurjr2.conf
sudo dhclient -r rename4
sudo dhclient rename4

Independently which interface I'm starting first, second one fails:

nl80211: MLME command failed (auth): ret=-16 (Device or resource busy)


I expect that virtual interfaces on Atheros AR9485 are working and I will be 
able to connect to 2 wifi APs simultaneously, e.g.
