We are using this interface and can support this change. Since this is
an API change, could you please support this going to hostap-1? I take

Acked-by: Reinette Chatre <reinette.chatre at intel.com>
intended-for: hostap-1

Fl?vio: I am just curious ... are you planning a similar change to the
P2PDeviceProperties on the P2PDevice interface?
