So, "wwan" does not mean "3g"? or 3g is included in "wwan"?
And, does the "non-standard radio control file" mean like "threeg",
"wlan" or "bluetooth" in /sys/devices/platform/xxxxx ?

In current x86/platform, there have a bit driver still used the
"non-standard control file". Does that mean we need replace all of 
those control files by rfkill interface?


Thank's
