I don't think there is any requirement or expectation of the
P2P_REMOVE_CLIENT to be used on the interface that is used to manage P2P
Device operations and because of that, wpa_s->parent was used there to
find the persistent groups.

I don't think this is correct. With the newer P2P Device concept, there
may be need to override wpa_s->parent in some cases with
wpa_s->parent->p2p_dev, but this function needs to continue to work with
the case of P2P_REMOVE_CLIENT being issued on a group interface.
