[PATCH 4.9 108/128] carl9170: remove P2P_GO support
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri Jun 19 2020 - 12:43:11 EST
From: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@xxxxxxxxx>
commit b14fba7ebd04082f7767a11daea7f12f3593de22 upstream.
This patch follows up on a bug-report by Frank SchÃfer that
discovered P2P GO wasn't working with wpa_supplicant.
This patch removes part of the broken P2P GO support but
keeps the vif switchover code in place.
