Hi,

This patch is a resend of a patch I has been send to the linux kernel
and netdev list earlier. The most recent version of a few weeks back
didn't compile since I missed 1 line in my patch that changed
include/linux/input.h.

This patch will offer the handling of radiokeys on a laptop.
Such keys often control the wireless devices on the radio
like the wifi, bluetooth and irda.

The rfkill works as follows, when the user presses the hardware key
to control the wireless (wifi, bluetooth or irda) radio a signal will
go to rfkill. This happens by the hardware driver sending a signal
to rfkill, or rfkill polling for the button status.
The key signal will then be processed by rfkill, each key will have
its own input device, if this input device has not been openened
by the user, rfkill will keep the signal and either turn the radio
on or off based on the key status.
If the input device has been opened, rfkill will send the signal to
userspace and do nothing further. The user is in charge of controlling
the radio.

This driver (if accepted and applied) will be usefull for the rt2x00 drivers
(rt2400pci, rt2500pci, rt2500usb, rt61pci and rt73usb) in the wireless-dev
tree and the MSI laptop driver from Lennart Poettering in the main
linux kernel tree.

Before this patch can be applied to any tree, I first wish to hear
if the patch is acceptable. Since the previous time it was send I have made
several fixes based on the feedback like adding the sysfs entries for
reading the status.

+       RF button support
+       Laptops are quite often equiped with a RF key to enable or
+       disable the radio of the wireless device attached to that key.
+       This wireless device usually is an integrated wireless network device,
+       infrared or bluetooth device.
+       Some of these devices will disable the radio automatically when the
+       RF key has been pressed, while other devices need to be polled
+       for the RF key status, and leave the action to be taken up to the
+       driver for that particular device.
+       But in all cases the only interface that will have its radio disabled
+       will be the device that has the RF key attached to it. It could however
+       be desired that userspace performs this disabling of the radios in case
+       more things than just disabling a single radio is desired.
+
+       The rfkill driver will contain a list of all devices with a RF button,
+       and hardware drivers need to register their hardware to the rfkill
+       interface. Rfkill will then take care of everything. If the RF key
+       requires polling to obtain the status this will be handled by rfkill.
+       If the RF key does not require polling but sends for example interrupts,
+       the hardware driver can report the change of status to rfkill, without
+       having to do any other action.
+       Once the status of the key has changed and the hardware does not
+       automatically enable or disable the radio rfkill provides the
+       interface to do this correctly.
+
+       For each registered hardware button an input device will be created.
+       If this input device has been opened by the user, rfkill will send a
+       signal to userspace instead of the hardware about the new button
+       status. This will allow userpace to perform the correct steps
+       in order to bring down all interfaces.
