Is it possible that this fix might cause a phone to wake up more often,
or to stay awake longer?  I'm seeing weird idle power behavior ever
since this fix landed in krillin rc-proposed 196.

Before: ~9 mA

After: ~35 mA

Here's the commit log for 196:

proposed/196.commitlog

Arale results look fine.  I don't know why krillin is different, but I'm
only seeing this behavior on krillin when wifi is connected...  and this
bug fix is a likely suspect.  I don't see additional forks or crashes in
the test logs, which suggests the issue is probably caused by a long-
running process.

Bug description:
  Krillin, rc-proposed, r83

  
  DESCRIPTION:
  I've been trying to track down the cause of the occasional UI freezes on my Krillin device, and I noticed that whenever the UI freezes for 2-4 seconds, I get a burst of "PropertiesChanged" signals in dbus-monitor

  Here's a log of what's shown in dbus-monitor:
  http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/11992322/

  I'd guess the problem is in the code that actually catches the signals
  and acts accordingly.

  HOW TO REPRODUCE: 
  1) Move to a place where many wifi hotspots are available
  2) Connect the device via USB and run "phablet-shell" and then "dbus-monitor"
  3) Use the device while keeping an eye on dbus-monitor output
