      acer-wmi: Add rfkill support for wireless and bluetooth · 0606e1ab
      Carlos Corbacho authored
      This patch implements rfkill support for the wireless and bluetooth devices
      commonly found on Acer laptops.
      
      For now, we will always poll these devices once a second to guarantee we
      can catch state changes. On newer Acer laptops, it may be possible to rely
      on WMI events to do this instead, and experimental support for this will be
      added in a later patch.
      
      3G has been deliberately left off for now, as we still have no way to
      detect it, (nor, AFAIK, has any Linux user tried the code) and on laptops
      that don't support 3G, trying to poll for the status will leave the logs
      full of ACPI tracebacks.
      
      The old sysfs interface for wireless and bluetooth will be removed in a
      later patch.
      
      (Thanks to Henrique de Moraes Holschuh and Dmitry Torokhov for reviewing
      this patch).
