Bug Description

At times wpa_supplicant claims after a device reboot that P2P support is not available. Aethercast fails in that case to setup its network management.

Steps:
1. Reboot device
2. Try to find any WiFi Display devices
3. If WiFi Display devices are showing up, repeat at from step 1

Expected:
Any available WiFi Display devices are showing up in the result list.

Actual:
No devices are available through the UI.
