Title:
  [wifi] Enable the use of nl80211 power save mode when available

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  NetworkManager should enable power save on wireless devices that
  support it. This is done by the NL80211_CMD_SET_POWER_SAVE command.

  Note; ideally powersave should not be enabled while doing an
  association, since it can interfere (cause delays) in things like DHCP
  requests/responses, etc. Best might be to enable it once the device is
  fully activated, and remove it once we're in a disconnected state.
