Bug Description
[Impact]
NetworkManager consumes more power than previous releases because powersave support is not updated.
[Test Case]
With the patch applied, network device power management should be on when supported, for example:
$ sudo iwconfig wlan0 | grep "Power Management"
Power Management:on
[Regression Potential]
Regression may happen when the power management feature of certain device isn't implemented properly in kernel, but since we are quite conservative on enabling power management in kernel development such case should be rare.
