[PATCH] acer-wmi: check wireless capability on AMW0_GUID2 machines

From: Lee, Chun-Yi
Date: Tue Nov 22 2011 - 20:29:13 EST


From: "Lee, Chun-Yi" <jlee@xxxxxxxx>

Have many non-acer machines have AMW0_GUID2 method in DSDT, in
original acer-wmi design, driver direct set ACER_CAP_WIRELESS flag
for those machines but didn't check the functionality for set/get
wireless state.
It causes acer-wmi driver create a broken wireless rfkill and it
already set to soft blocked.

So, this patch add a wireless capability check before we set
ACER_CAP_WIRELESS flag to the machines that were included AMW0_GUID2.
It avoid acer-wmi create a broken wireless rfkill.

Thank's for Matthew Garrett give the idea.

Tested on Lenovo E520.
Tested on Acer TravelMate 4750.
