Can you try latest wireless-testing?  There's an rfkill patch for
ath5k in it.  URL is:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-testing.git

As for LEDs, there's a patch in kernel bugzilla.  I don't have a link handy
but you can check the ath5k-devel archives from a week or two ago, let
me know if you can't find it.
