why not just set the ret = 0 here and save eht work later

if set it earlier, do have to do this

it looks good, what NIC and system you test with?
also you mention it no longer generate rfkill changes interrupt, could
you elaborate?  

btw, could you send the patch to <internal-wifi-devel@...ux.intel.com>
first if ok for you.

Thanks
Wey
