Network-Manager will then disable the wifi functionality. And even when
enabling the wifi functionality, network manager will not scan.
But the problem is that the this device doesn't have an hardware rfkill
switch. The current workaround on Stretch is to unload the ideapad_laptop
module on this Laptop.
