  in initrd.
* Don't check connectivity of unconfigured devices.
* Fix PKCS#12 handling in the ifcfg-rh plugin.
* Avoid waiting for udev to see software devices created by NetworkManager.
* Don't attempt to stop management daemon for Team devices created
  externally to NetworkManager.
* Use FQDN for persistent hostname on Slackware.

TL8723BE PCIe Wireless Network Adapter

I tried installing the following:
- lib64mbim-glib4-1.18.2-1.mga7.x86_64
- lib64qmi-glib5-1.22.2-1.mga7.x86_64
- libmbim-utils-1.18.2-1.mga7.x86_64
- libqmi-utils-1.22.2-1.mga7.x86_64
- modemmanager-1.10.0-1.mga7.x86_64
- networkmanager-1.18.2-1.mga7.x86_64
- networkmanager-bluetooth-1.18.2-1.mga7.x86_64
- networkmanager-wifi-1.18.2-1.mga7.x86_64
- networkmanager-wwan-1.18.2-1.mga7.x86_64

I was unable to make it work with my WIFI or bluetooth (I think it may be hardware compatability)  Yes, I killed the other network services and then started network manager.  It would recognize the WIFI network, but could not connect.

On Bluetooth it would no longer attach to Bluetooth mouse.

I uninstalled networkmanager-bluetooth-1.18.2-1 and rebooted and bluetooth worked again.

I think it may be unique to this hardware so deferring to someone with more network manager experience and possibly different hardware.

Tested on a Sony Vaio E series notebook.
NetworkManager was installed and configured before. No regression found.
