This improves robustness of GO Negotiation in special cases where GO
Negotiation Request frames from the peer may end up getting delivered
multiple times, e.g., due to interference and retransmitted frames not
getting properly filtered out in duplicate detection (which is something
that number of drivers do not implement for pre-associated state).
If we have already replied with GO Negotiation Response frame with
Status 1 (not yet ready), do not reply to another GO Negotiation Request
frame from the peer if we have already received authorization from the
user (P2P_CONNECT command) for group formation and have sent out our GO
Negotiation Request frame. This avoids a possible sequence where two
independent GO Negotiation instances could go through in parallel if the
MAC address based rule on avoiding duplicate negotiations is not able to
prevent the case. This can allow GO Negotiation to complete successfully
whereas the previous behavior would have likely resulted in a failure
with neither device sending a GO Negotiation Confirm frame.

The previous implementation used an obsolete sm->eapol_key_crypt pointer
which was not set anywhere (i.e., was always NULL). In addition, the
