[PATCH] Retreive shared frequency when a singly "phy" is shared between multiple interfaces

This patch implements shared_freq handler for driver_nl80211.c If a "p2p_group_add" happens after legacy STA association, then this
patch will help to start the GO on the same frequency. This is useful when supplicant is started on multiple interface running over
a singly "PHY". 

For e.g wpa_supplicant -iwlan0 ..  -N -iwlan1 ...

Kindly see whether the patch is okay.
