Hmm.. There is something quite confusing about these patches and how the
use P2P Device vs. Interface Addresses..

So this dev_addr here is the P2P Device Address of the GO that this
interface is connected to as a P2P Client.

wpa_s->go_dev_addr is that P2P Device Address of the GO, but go_dev_addr
from p2p_get_own_go_device_address() was P2P Interface Address.. This
type of matching will fail if the GO uses a design where the P2P Device
Address and P2P Interface Address(es) are different.
