Hmm.. This makes some P2P use cases fail with a kernel that supports the
new functionality. At least group formation without separate group
interface failed on the GO (hwsim) with frame registration:
1322937312.602354: nl80211: Setup AP operations for P2P group (GO)
1322937312.602372: nl80211: Set mode ifindex 3 iftype 9 (P2P_GO)
1322937312.603544: nl80211: Register frame command failed (type=64): ret=-114 (Operation already in progress)
1322937312.603596: nl80211: Register frame match - hexdump(len=0): [NULL]
1322937312.603753: wlan0: Failed to start AP functionality
Just starting up an autonomous GO did not seem to have this issue. In
addition, older kernel without the new functionality did not hit this,
so I would assume that somehow this patch ends up registering to receive
frames multiple times for AP mode.
There were couple of conflicts in the patches, so I'm included the
version that I used in the test below.
