[Impact]

The killswitches-no-urfkill autopkgtest fails sometimes because nmcli
reports the old state when it's called right after rfkill block/unblock.
Adding a sleep before calling nmcli fixes the issue.

Package versions [artful/ppc64el]:
network-manager 1.8.4-1ubuntu3
linux-meta 4.13.0.17.18


[Test Case]

2.1. Download network-manager package source code
$ apt-get source network-manager

2.2. Run killswitches-no-urfkill testcase
$ cd network-manager-1.8.4
$ sudo ./debian/tests/killswitches-no-urfkill


[Regression Potential]

No regression potential. The fix touches only the testcase shipped with
the source package and it doesn't change the binary package. The sleep
time added is very small, so no possibility of causing testcase timeout.


[Other Info]

On ppc64el architecture, it was observed that a fix for systemd is also
needed (see bug 1734908) for the testcase to be successful.
