Thanks. I applied patches 1..16 as a first step to avoid keeping these
open. Patch 17 that actually takes the new functionality into use breaks
things (at least with mac80211_hwsim), so I'm not yet convinced it can
be applied as-is. I guess we could add a workaround that disables this
by default with mac80211_hwsim (or all drivers) and a configuration
parameter to enable this since the P2P_DEVICE supported vs.
required/preferred is not currently advertised by the kernel (e.g., I
see no point in using this with mac80211_hwsim apart from testing
P2P_DEVICE).
