And I can answer the above question (forgive the syntax it's from
memory, but the text is correct). After it stops working again (after
the unblock suggested by M Garrett), rfkill list shows something like
this:

0: hp-wifi  Hard blocked: yes
                   Soft blocked: no

1: phy0     Hard blocked: no
                   Soft blocked: no

And yes, the device number shown for phy0 changes from 4 to 1 after
working, it is not a typing error.
