Bug Description

METABUG FOR OTA6:

Mako has an issue with wpa-supplicant that use 100% of the cpu and stops the phone from functioning as expected when hotspot is in use.
Mako currently has hotspot installed, it can be enabled but devices can not connect to it.
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wpasupplicant/+bug/1429314

Flo only has one modem wifi which is turn into the outgoing source for hotspot therefore disabling wifi.

Bug #1429314 was actually for krillin, not mako and has since been marked Invalid. That said, running a quick test on mako ( rc-proposed / #228 ) shows that although the hotspot can be created/started, it's not usable. It can be seen by other devices ( iPhone, Nexus5 ), but neither is able to properly authenticate properly.

I also see the following kernel and wpa_supplicant errors on mako when a client attempts to associate.

15:18:19 kernel: [ 1010.424629] wlan: [1484:E :PE ] limProcessAssocReqFrame: 654: AP supports RSN enabled authentication
15:18:22 wpa_supplicant[1945]: handle_probe_req: send failed

Bug #1434591 tracks the specific problem with mako ( hotspot is visible, but devices can't connect to it ).

Hotspot creation is done in exclusively System Settings per the specification, so let's disable it there for now.
