p2p_find failed

[Fu Yingang]

hi, Kevin

Thanks for your reply!

I'm trying run p2p on a Android phone.
I've tried built wpa_supplicant with nl80211 driver support. But I
failed at missing libnl_2 dynamic library ...
The kernel upgrade is acceptable for me .... So it seems i should give
up the p2p connection between two android phone right now.

Thanks
Yingang
