The doc says:

        ******IMPORTANT******
        When rfkill-input is ACTIVE, userspace is NOT TO CHANGE THE STATE O=
F AN RFKILL
        SWITCH IN RESPONSE TO AN INPUT EVENT also handled by rfkill-input, =
unless it
        has set to true the user_claim attribute for that particular switch=
.  This rule
        is *absolute*; do NOT violate it.
        ******IMPORTANT******
       =20
        ...
       =20
        When rfkill-input is not active, userspace must initiate a rfkill s=
tatus
        change by writing to the "state" attribute in order for anything to=
 happen.
       =20


How the hell is userspace supposed to know whether rfkill-input is
active or not? Does anybody fucking care to implement any of this mess
in userspace?
