There is a bug in the code of the Geoclue2 geolocation provider that prevents geolocation from working if you try to reload a page after having started using the geolocation API previously.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open http://html5demos.com/geo in a geolocation in Minibrowser
2. Allow to know the location when requested through a dialog
3. Wait until it says "Found you!"
4. Reload the page and repeat step 2

Expected outcome:

You should see the found location once again

Actual:

You will see "Failed" instead, because the geolocation provider is trying to use the same client proxy for geoclue2 service, that is no longer available after having called geoclue_client_call_stop() in GeolocarionProviderGeoclue::stopUpdating(), since apparently it can be reused from previous times.
