The original bug is caused by a bug in WMI driver in kernel 3.5;
however, with _OSI("Windows 2012") = true, BIOS no longer uses WMI to
control wireless, and therefore it can be fixed by another kernel driver
(see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-lts-
saucy/+bug/1303737).

I verified it on HP 242 G2 (LP#1303737) with two kernel versions and it
works pretty well.

Bug description:
  We have a fix that we used on pre-installs. However, the upstream fix
  was not included, afaict. This bug is so we can track the fix as it
  makes its way to upstream and the ubuntu kernel.
