SubjectRe: [GIT PATCH] rfkill support for r/w and r/o rfkill switches

The following patches are fine by me, without any additional comments:
[PATCH 1/8] rfkill: clarify meaning of rfkill states
[PATCH 2/8] rfkill: fix minor typo in kernel doc
[PATCH 5/8] rfkill: add read-only rfkill switch support
[PATCH 7/8] rfkill: add an "any radio" switch type and functionality

The following patches are overall fine, but I have some additional comments:
[PATCH 6/8] rfkill: add the WWAN radio type
[PATCH 3/8] rfkill: handle KEY_RADIO and SW_RADIO events

The following patches are _not_ fine with me:
[PATCH 4/8] rfkill: add read-write rfkill switch support
[PATCH 8/8] rfkill: add parameter to disable radios by default
