This causes "rkfill block" and "rfkill unblock" fail to change the state of wireless devices in these particular systems. HP defines wmi 0x05 as "This command is deprecated starting with Bios09 platforms and is replaced by Command Type 1Bh. Check Features Reporting (Command Type 0Dh, Bit 3) for new command support."
