Bug Description
In the default install setup I get this message in dmesg:
Jun 11 09:30:29 larsa wpa_supplicant[
Jun 11 09:30:29 larsa wpa_supplicant[
Jun 11 09:30:29 larsa wpa_supplicant[
and p2p wifi is not working. When I boot with net.names=0 (disable consistent network device naming), everything is ok and `iw dev` lists another interface
phy#0
Unnamed/non-netdev interface

after which wpa_cli can be used to create p2p group.
