Title:
  Redpine: wifi-ap stopped working after restart

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in linux source package in Xenial:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  SRU Justification:
  ------------------

  Impact:
      Wi-Fi access point isn’t visible to outside devices after reboot

  Test Case:
      Configure Wi-Fi AP using setup wizard:
         $ sudo wifi-ap.setup-wizard

      Check configured AP settings:
         $ sudo wifi-ap.config get

         debug: false
         dhcp.lease-time: 12h
         dhcp.range-start: 10.0.60.2
         dhcp.range-stop: 10.0.60.200
         disabled: false
         share.disabled: false
         share.network-interface: wlan0
         wifi.address: 10.0.60.1
         wifi.channel: 6
         wifi.country-code:
         wifi.hostapd-driver: nl80211
         wifi.interface: wlan0
         wifi.interface-mode: direct
         wifi.netmask: ff000000
         wifi.operation-mode: g
         wifi.security: wpa2
         wifi.security-passphrase: some-password
         wifi.ssid: dell-gateway

      Restart AP and check its status:
         $ sudo wifi-ap.status restart-ap

      Check status of AP. It is showing true.
         $ sudo wifi-ap.status
         ap.active: true

      At this point, Wi-Fi access point is not visible.

  Fix:
      Power save is not enabled in AP mode and modified the same in source code.

  Regression potential:
      Ran "wifi-ap.status restart-ap" command in every 1 minute and observed whether it is visible to third party devices are not. And it is behaving as expected.

  This patch is for tracking only, please don't triage.
