I reverse bisected the upstream kernel, and determined that the fix is
in commit 16c426f. I also believe that this is (upstream) already set to
be merged into the 3.19 kernel (please let me know if that's not the
case).

Specifically, there is only one small change in this commit, which
adjusts the way the shared bluetooth antenna works. Inspecting the code,
I also determined the following test and workaround - turn off the
bluetooth, and then restart.

I attempted this on the latest Ubuntu 3.19.0-15-generic kernel. If the
computer is booted with the bluetooth turned off (i.e. from a previous
session) then the wifi will work. If the computer boots with the
bluetooth turned on, the wifi will not work, even if you first turn off
the bluetooth. A restart is needed.

Let me know if there is more I can do.
