This patch series (based on v2.6.25-rc8-mm2) has several improvements to the rfkill class that I need for thinkpad-acpi, plus two fluff and documentation fixes.
I'd appreciate comments, and if the patches are acceptable, that they are sent to mainline early during the 2.6.26 merge window. That way, I could try for a thinkpad-acpi rfkill submission for 2.6.26 as well.
The thinkpad-acpi work that needs these patches is ready, and can be looked at on the thinkpad-acpi git tree (devel branch): http://repo.or.cz/w/linux-2.6/linux-acpi-2.6/ibm-acpi-2.6.git
Note: new thinkpads have a read-only "type any" radio switch, plus read-write WWAN and Bluetooth radio switches. The embedded WLAN cards have WLAN read-write switches (that should be handled by the ipw* and iwl* drivers). Very old thinkpads had ACPI-based WLAN radio switches, but thinkpad-acpi does not support those.
Shortlog: Henrique de Moraes Holschuh (8): rfkill: clarify meaning of rfkill states rfkill: fix minor typo in kernel doc rfkill: handle KEY_RADIO and SW_RADIO events rfkill: add read-write rfkill switch support rfkill: add read-only rfkill switch support rfkill: add the WWAN radio type rfkill: add an "any radio" switch type and functionality rfkill: add parameter to disable radios by default
