I removed rfkill_input and toggled the switch off - b43 reported that
the hardware switch was set to DISABLED, but the light remained on.
When the switch was turned on, b43 reported that it was ENABLED. It
certainly seems that the switch is wired to some pin on the PCIe
connector used by my BCM4312.
From what I know, hp-wmi is a Windows process - when I need to use
Windows, I go to a different computer.
