P2P is not yet implemented in rtl8192cu. The method is being added to rtlwifi
and the PCI-based drivers in patches that are now undergoing tests. They will
likely be in kernel 3.10. Once that is done, I will be able to consider P2P for
the USB-based driver.
FWIW, the use of iwpriv for things like this has been discontinued. Check the
use of iw.
