What's inside other wmi_bus-PNP0C14* folders? By previous experience, BIOS vendor may implement some WMI interface that can be used to control anything they want. Somehow such interfaces could be misused on Linux as they're mostly designed for Windows. For example, 86CCFD48-205E-4A77-9C48-2021CBEDE341 is for controlling Intel thunderbolt power, and it should not appear on a platform without thunderbolt ports. When it goes wrong, the most appropriate solution should be in the BIOS side, so looking for new BIOS updates should be the first thing you wanna try, but sometimes you can only try work arounds like removing fwupd/boltd or so.

Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I used Ubuntu on this machine starting with 16.04 LTS. The network PCI never worked but USB D-Link card did work... up to recently and then it stopped. I installed 18.04 LTS -- it read Airplane Mode On and nothing could be done. rfkill gave me phy0 soft block no, hard block yes. But f8+Fn only caused a pop-up message that Airplane Mod On or Off but not in the status bar -- there it was always on with an instruction to use hardware switch and setting wireless never worked. I installed KDE over Ubuntu 19 now and Airplane Mode can be turned On and Off but WiFi never turns on.
