Jorge Lopez aa05252ab4 platform/x86: hp_wmi: Fix rfkill causing soft blocked wifi
commit 1598bfa8e1faa932de42e1ee7628a1c4c4263f0a upstream.

After upgrading BIOS to U82 01.02.01 Rev.A, the console is flooded
strange char "^@" which printed out every second and makes login
nearly impossible. Also the below messages were shown both in console
and journal/dmesg every second:

usb 1-3: Device not responding to setup address.
usb 1-3: device not accepting address 4, error -71
usb 1-3: device descriptor read/all, error -71
usb usb1-port3: unable to enumerate USB device

Wifi is soft blocked by checking rfkill. When unblocked manually,
after few seconds it would be soft blocked again. So I was suspecting
something triggered rfkill to soft block wifi.  At the end it was
fixed by removing hp_wmi module.

The root cause is the way hp-wmi driver handles command 1B on
post-2009 BIOS.  In pre-2009 BIOS, command 1Bh return 0x4 to indicate
that BIOS no longer controls the power for the wireless devices.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
