I suppose you could manage it as a separate tree. Before this round of
patches, that would have seemed like overkill. :-) My only argument
would be that there are probably more users of rfkill in the wireless
(i.e. wireless LAN) trees than in the Bluetooth, UWB, or WiMAX trees.
But honestly, it is up to you and Dave. I'm happy to take the patches
in my trees or you guys can arrange something else.
Just let me know if you want me to merge them. Otherwise, I'll drop
them from my queue.
Thanks,
John
