As a dedicated P2P Device interface does not have a network interface associated with it, trying to call linux_iface_up() on it would always fail so this call can be skipped for such an interface. Getting interface nlmode can be done only after bss->wdev_id is set, so move this call to wpa_driver_nl80211_finish_drv_init(), and do it only in case the nlmode != NL80211_IFTYPE_P2P_DEVICE.
