    cfg80211: add P2P Device abstraction · 98104fde

    In order to support using a different MAC address
    for the P2P Device address we must first have a
    P2P Device abstraction that can be assigned a MAC
    address.
    
    This abstraction will also be useful to support
    offloading P2P operations to the device, e.g.
    periodic listen for discoverability.
    
    Currently, the driver is responsible for assigning
    a MAC address to the P2P Device, but this could be
    changed by allowing a MAC address to be given to
    the NEW_INTERFACE command.
    
    As it has no associated netdev, a P2P Device can
    only be identified by its wdev identifier but the
    previous patches allowed using the wdev identifier
    in various APIs, e.g. remain-on-channel.
