I understand, but unless we figure out either make rkill interrupt works
in runtime PM, or figure out the platform does not has HW RFKILL
automatically, I don't see how this patch can upstream without generate
a lot of issues and bug reports.

I suppose the question is -- will any tools/users enable it and then
scream about their rfkill?

Maybe we can use pm_runtime_forbid() to disable it completely, and add a
module parameter or something to enable it -- just so people are aware
of the tradeoffs?

module parameter shall works, we just need a clear and easy way to allow
user enable/disable this runtime PM feature and not making mistake
