nl80211: Fix RTM event handling for dynamic interfaces

Browse source 
When an interface is disabled through rtm event, wpa_supplicant's
EVENT_INTERFACE_DISABLED is generated, which in turn, may
completely destroy wpa_driver_nl80211_data struct (drv). This
scenario happens now when P2P GO interface is disabled. Since this
struct may be used later in this function it causes segmentation fault.

Fix it by trying to find drv again in the interface list after
wpa_supplicant's event handling.
