How would the P2P Client know which BSSID the GO is using in this
instance? The BSSID, i.e., the P2P Interface Address, may change between
each invocation of a persistent group.

That could result in NULL pointer dereferencing the bssid parameter,
i.e., this call needs to be made conditional on bssid being not-NULL.

That should really be bool/false here.

os_strcmp() returns 0 on match, i.e., this needs " == 0" to be added to
work correctly.

true? Was that supposed to be force_go_bssid instead?

The params->bssid here is the bssid value in the special network profile
that is used to store the persistent group information. That special
case uses the bssid value to store the P2P Device Address of the GO; not
the P2P Interface Address (which would be the BSSID). How is this
supposed to work if the GO uses P2P Interface Addresses that differ from
the P2P Device Address?
