I'm not sure what exactly this is trying use the intended_addr for, but
this field is not meant to be shown to end user and some other mechanism
needs to be used for this.

What exactly is the information that is needed here? Is this on the GO?
And to display the P2P Interface Address? Or on the P2P client? On GO,
AP-STA-CONNECTED event should be used.
