This does not update the internal country code which is needed, e.g.,
for P2P. In addition, there is already a mechanism for updating that
through control interface: "SET country <country code>". That does not
currently call wpa_drv_set_country(), but the proper way of adding this
functionality is to add this into wpa_supplicant_update_config() instead
of introducing an alternative control interface command for the exact
same purpose. Please see whether this meets your needs:
