Hi Greg,
It would seem to, but I am following guideline from Documentation/rfkill.txt,
section 3. Kernel API:
""
To create an rfkill driver, driver's Kconfig needs to have
depends on RFKILL || !RFKILL
to ensure the driver cannot be built-in when rfkill is modular. The !RFKILL
case allows the driver to be built when rfkill is not configured, which which
case all rfkill API can still be used but will be provided by static inlines
which compile to almost nothing.
""
I am not sure if this is really needed as cfg80211 does most of rfkill work for
us.
Gr. AvS

Isn't that redundant?
