Most likely you have an rfkill device that appears and the disappears, possibly because a firmware rfkill device is replaced by a driver-level one. Either way, in 227 the code around this has changed quite a bit, the service is now a singleton and works quite differently. It's now started each time an rfkill event happens, and then exits after a few seconds. We precisely made this change to deal better with rfkill devices that appear only temporarily.
