I should note that NM never has may never call SetPower(), for a few reasons:
1) NM needs explicit control over what and how devices get disabled, which
SetPower doesn't provide
2) Since the killswitches in HAL are not necessarily mapped to an actual
network device, there is nothing that SetPower() can do in a lot of cases
3) Only NM knows about the actual network hardware and therefore what devices
to disable when a killswitch is thrown
