You wouldn't happen to know exactly what rfkill mechanism the modem firmware means by 'BIOS'? And what about 'GOBIIM'? As your example shows, 'W_DISABLE' was the only external LPM input of the older 77xx modules ('User', 'Temp' and 'Volt' are all modem firmware internal). And 'W_DISABLE' is simply pin 20 on the mini-PCIe connector, usually controlled by the laptop rfkill circuitry. You can override that with a piece of tape if necessarry. I assume the new signals must be software interfaces, maybe some magic shared config register or some sort of USB control message? But that should also be documented in a spec somewhere. It is part of the mini-PCIe host/device interface even if it is software based.
