If this is true, that's a bug, no? Drivers would call pause/resume when
their status changes, and shouldn't be required to check status at
resume time?

I did not dive too much into the logic here, but
rfkill_resume_polling() is called unconditionally on rfkill_resume(),
so it seems that if a driver call rfkill_pause_polling() before
suspend, on resume polling will be "un-paused". That indeed looks
strange.
