------------------------------+--------------------------------
 The net_is_disabled() function returns true when we are in soft
 hibernation, which can be confusing, and which is probably a partial cause
 of #32108.  Similarly, PERIODIC_EVENT_FLAG_NEED_NET prevents a callback
 from running when we are in soft hibernation, which is also potentially
 confusing.

 Let's figure out good names for these functions and flags, and audit their
 usage to make sure that there are no more bugs kicking around.
