Internet tethering over WiFi requires the support of the Kernel's Netfiltering driver. See commit 89deb361cfe6eb9a820ab6619f3c73cb252e8dc4.
While this feature is functional when enabled, it also makes the devices prone to Kernel panics. Under these conditions, suspending the device or ejecting the SD card will cause a Kernel panic.
Thus this feature along with the feature to support Hotspots were disabled in the subsequent commits (ea9e4a8af257d0a5804fcb617c8c8426477c8150 & 5b9e0f6294cf37afda124ab57b2bb11eb8e46c47).
