That's not the way GO Negotiation is supposed to work. The P2P Device is
required to reply immediate with GO Negotiation Response without waiting
for the upper layer authorization (if one is not already available).
Once upper layer processing is completed and connection is authorize, a
new GO Negotiation instance is started by the device that sent the GO
Negotiation Response frame with status=1 (info currently unavailable).
