Its a problem in ofono where still creates a modem instance (exposed as
/ril_0) without any interfaces registered when the connection to the
ril-daemon fails. IMHO ofono should not create the modem instance as
long as it can't connect to rild. We agreed on keeping ofono running
even on devices which doesn't have a modem.

Title:
  system settings displays 'cellular' control panel item when no modems
  are present

Bug description:
  In bug #1541588 several items were removed from system settings for
  tablets which have no cellular modem.

  In a related bug #1544712 ofono must still be present on such devices,
  in order for location to work.

  It seems that when it was tested, the landing for  bug #1541588
  happened when ofono was not running.

  I conclude therefore that the decision to display/not display cellular
  is keyed merely on the presence of ofono, rather than, say the count
  of modems ofono reports.
