-Subject: [PATCH] platform/x86: ideapad-laptop: Remove no_hw_rfkill_list
-
-When the ideapad-laptop driver was first written it was written for laptops
-which had a hardware rfkill switch. So when the first ideapad laptops
-showed up without a hw rfkill switch and it turned out that in this case
-the ideapad firmware interface would always report the wifi being hardware-
-blocked, a DMI id list of models which lack a hw rfkill switch was started
-(by yours truly). Things were done this way to avoid regressing existing
-models with a hw rfkill switch. In hindsight this was a mistake.
-
-Lenovo releases a lot of ideapad models every year and even the latest
-models still use the "VPC2004" ACPI interface the ideapad-laptop driver
-binds to. Having a hw rfkill switch is quite rare on modern hardware, so
-all these new models need to be added to the no_hw_rfkill_list, leading
-to a never ending game of whack a mole.
-
-Worse the failure mode when not present on the list, is very bad. In this
-case the ideapad-laptop driver will report the wifi as being hw-blocked,
-at which points NetworkManager does not even try to use it and the user
-ends up with non working wifi.
-
-This leads to various Linux fora on the internet being filled with
-wifi not working on ideapad laptops stories, which does not make Linux
-look good.
-
-The failure mode when we flip the default to assuming that a hw rfkill
-switch is not present OTOH is quite benign. When we properly report the
-wifi as being hw-blocked on ideapads which do have the hw-switch; and it
-is in the wifi-off position, then at least when using NetworkManager +
-GNOME3 the user will get a "wifi disabled in hardware" message when trying
-to connect to the wifi from the UI. If OTOH we assume there is no hardware
-rfkill switch, then the user will get an empty list for the list of
-available networks. Although the empty list vs the "wifi disabled in
-hardware" message is a regression, it is a very minor regression and it
-can easily be fixed on a model by model basis by filling the new
-hw_rfkill_list this commit introduces.
-
-Therefor this commit removes the ever growing no_hw_rfkill_list, flipping
-the default to assuming there is no hw rfkill switch and adding a new
-hw_rfkill_list. Thereby fixing the wifi not working on all the current
-ideapad and yoga models which are not on the list yet and also fixing it
-for all future ideapad and yoga models using the "VPC2004" ACPI interface.
-
-Note once this patch has been accepted upstream. I plan to write a blog
-post asking for users of ideapads and yoga's with a hw rfkill switch to
-step forward, so that we can populate the new hw_rfkill_list with the few
-older yoga and ideapad models which actually have a hw rfkill switch.
