Now I wanted to do not use i8042 hook function in dell-laptop.c 
which was used only for receiving key event (hw switch) and 
propagating it to dell-laptop rfkill device. See my patch:

dell-laptop: Use dell-rbtn instead i8042 filter when possible

But if we really should drop these atk key press, then another 
patch for it will be needed.
