Bug Description
The GPS provider implementation takes a wake-lock on behalf of the GPS chipset driver whenever the positioning engine is enabled. We have to make sure that the wake-lock is released as early and as aggressively as possible such that we do not prevent the device from going to deep sleep.
From a user's perspective: Battery life is likely to suffer as we do not ensure on this level that the respective wake lock is given up.
