I think that is a question for people with more knowledge in this regard.

But to my experiencing using connman and iwd. I think it's OK.
Now I am running these two shepherd services separately

- connman (without wpa-supplicant and iwd)
- iwd

This patch can be closed without applying.

Thanks for clarifying things for me.
