Public bug reported:

After upgrading to 2.6.31-17 I began having wireless problems.  After 
suspending, wireless would no longer connect.  It looks like the phy has been 
disabled.  This was in dmesg:
 b43-phy0: Radio hardware status changed to DISABLED

...and rfkill list showed:
0: phy0: Wireless LAN
        Soft blocked: no
        Hard blocked: yes

The only way I found to re-enable wireless was to boot into BIOS and
turn it back on there.

I have found a better workaround though.  Rebooting into 2.6.31-15
causes the issue to go away.  That's why I filed this as a bug against
the kernel instead of going to the forums.  It seems like this only
became a problem sometime after 2.6.31-15.
