I see this commit in upstream which may well be the replacement for
those ubuntu rfkill drivers we have been carrying for the longest time:

  commit c215ab9a7530d415707430de8d51a58ca6a41808

    x86: Add amilo-rfkill driver for some Fujitsu-Siemens Amilo laptops
    
    An rfkill driver based on the fsaa1655g and fsam7440 drivers for
    Fujitsu-Siemens Amilo A1655 and M7440 models found at:
    
    http://sourceforge.net/projects/fsaa1655g/
    http://sourceforge.net/projects/fsam7440/
    
    This adds DMI matching, replaces the procfs files with rfkill devices,
    and uses the proper functions to write to the i8042 safely.

Worth checking for Q.
