Steps to reproduce

1.Enter private browsing;
2.Go to a site from where you can download a file like https://www.thinkbroadband.com/download;
3.Open tabs tray.
4.Dismiss the tab with the download in progress.
5."Cancel private downloads?" popup appears.
6. Tap on "Cancel downloads"

Expected behavior

When the user presses "Cancel downloads" , the tab closes and the download stops.

Actual behavior

The download still continues.
If the download tab is the only tab, the download notification gets dismissed and the tab gets closed, but in the background, the download is still running. When you enter again on https://www.thinkbroadband.com/download and you try to dismiss the tab, the "Cancel private downloads?" popup still appears even if you didn't download anything.

Setting 122 to wontfix, this was backed out of the 122 branch.
