In speaking with the kernel team, I understand that this was a
deliberate change to harmonize the iwl* drivers with a new generic
rf_kill interface, /sys/class/rfkill. It appears that the correct
interface now for toggling/querying antenna state is
/sys/class/rfkill/rfkill<n>/state (though back-associating this with a
network interface is extremely sysfs-y). I'd like to get hard
confirmation of this from the kernel team that this is the right
interface, but in the meantime since it's an easy change I'm going to
implement that in acpi-support.
