Background:
To do Wi-Fi hotspots on krillin, we need to poke wifi by doing a call to 
wpa_supplicant's (undocumented/local) SetInterfaceFirmware method. See [1] for 
details.

Rationale:
Ubuntu System Settings needs to do the same things as aforementioned script, 
but via dbus [2], as phablet/current non-privileged user and unconfined.

What happens:
If phablet runs [2], this error message [3] is produced, which I interpret to 
be equivalent with "you're not welcome here".

What should happen instead:
Ubuntu System Settings should be able to make the call to wpa.
