About this topic, I've created a patch right now, you can find it here:
http://www.absence.it/vaio-acpi/source/patches/rfkill-input.patch
Does it look fine?

Moreover, using checkpatch.pl I've found 3 coding style errors, I'm 
attaching a patch to fix them (apply this one first).

And just one last thing: as there is no configuration option inside the 
menu, shouldn't we change the "menuconfig RFKILL" line to "config 
RFKILL" inside net/rfkill/Kconfig?
