Hi Kevin,

Your patch is still missing a Signed-off-by line in the commit-message.
We can only accept patches with a Signed-off-by line in the commit-message
like this:

Signed-off-by: Your Real Name <email@your.domain>

By adding this line you indicate that you are the author of the code and
are submitting it under the existing license for the file which you are
modifying (typically GPL-2.0) or that you have permission from the author
to submit it under this license. See:

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/submitting-patches.html#sign-your-work-the-developer-s-certificate-of-origin

Please resend your patch with a valid Signed-off-by added.

Unrelated to the S-o-b problem I wonder if you've tried setting
asus_nb_wmi.wapf=4 on the kernel commandline instead of adding
a new mechanism to disable rfkill support all together, see:

/*
 * WAPF defines the behavior of the Fn+Fx wlan key
 * The significance of values is yet to be found, but
 * most of the time:
 * Bit | Bluetooth | WLAN
 *  0  | Hardware  | Hardware
 *  1  | Hardware  | Software
 *  4  | Software  | Software
 */
static int wapf = -1;
module_param(wapf, uint, 0444);
MODULE_PARM_DESC(wapf, "WAPF value");

This would still require a quirk to do this automatically
on your model, but it would avoid the need to add a new
type of quirk.

Regards,

Hans
