Description
## Prerequisites
- [x] I have searched open and closed issues for duplicates.
## Describe the bug
When location permission is disabled in privacy settings, the event dialog throws up a dialog asking for permission every time it's opened.
### To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
1. In privacy settings, turn off location services. This can be either completely, or just for Calendar.
2. Open Calendar click the new event button.
3. The event dialog opens, and a permission dialog immediately follows.
You can do these steps any number of times and the permission dialog will appear.
### Expected behavior
Calendar should ask for this permission once, then not send this dialog again. If we want to keep asking for permission, it should be in the UI of the dialog somewhere. Nagging the user every time they edit an event is not a good experience.
