Hi Joey,

acer-wmi is indiscriminately using the device state from hotkey events
to update the various rfkill states. On the Aspire 1830 this can result
in a soft block on the wlan when the touchpad hotkey is pressed, as it
is reporting a non-zero device state that does not reflect the wireless
status.

I beleive the following (untested) patch is a roughly correct fix for
this issue.  It changes acer-wmi to only update the rfkill states when
the appropriate hotkeys are pressed, but I'm a little unsure about the
way I've split out the rfkill updates acording to the hotkeys. I don't
see any support in the driver for a 3G hotkey, so I've grouped it with
the wlan key, and I have split out bluetooth to be handled separately
from these. Does this patch look correct?

Thanks,
Seth
