| |
Mario Limonciello's compal-laptop changes were partly based on a reading of dell-laptop. Unfortunately dell-laptop set a few bad examples; let's fix them.
I don't have the hardware to test this, but the first four patches should be nice and low risk.
dell-laptop: fix a use-after-free error on the failure path dell-laptop: fix rfkill memory leak on unload and failure paths dell-laptop: create a platform device as a parent for the rfkill devices etc. dell-laptop: add __init to init functions
The last patch adds polling for the hardware switch which blocks all radios. This exercises the hardware a little more than before; it would benefit from testing. It should be possible to see events generated by the hardware switch using "udevadm monitor --kernel --environment".
dell-laptop: poll the rfkill hard-block
