Subject: [RESEND PATCH 0/3] RFKill airplane-mode indicator

This series implements an airplane-mode indicator LED trigger, which can be
used by platform drivers. By default the trigger fires on RFKILL_OP_CHANGE_ALL,
but this policy can be overwritten by userspace using the new operations
_AIRPLANE_MODE_INDICATOR_ACQUIRE and _AIRPLANE_MODE_INDICATOR_CHANGE. When the
airplane-mode indicator state changes, userspace gets notifications through the
RFKill control misc device (/dev/rfkill). I also have patches to the rfkill
userspace tool that makes use of this interface, so it can serve as API usage
example and to do quick checks on a running system, which I'll send in a
separate series.

After some hiatus I found the time to get back to this, and this time I've used
Jouni's hwsim suite to test the patches on top of mac80211-next/master. Lines
containing rfkill are pasted bellow:
