To be honest, I'm not sure I'd want either and I'm not sure I understand
the need to make this specific test case "work" with the where
mac80211_hwsim is forced to use a separate P2P Device interface. I would
much rather focus on making sure there is sufficient coverage for both
options in test cases without relying to running tests with custom
configuration that results in this type of issues in the first place. In
other words, I'd rather leave this as-is and if something is missing
from testing coverage with P2P Device interface, that should addressed
by adding a new test case that adds a dynamic hwsim radio with P2P
Device interface and then appropriately targeted SET and wait-event
commands on the interface that handles P2P messages.
