Do Dell firmwares support persistent rfkill state? My ill-informed guess is that it shouldn't hurt to call it. If the firmware is sane, it will initialize the rfkill to a useful state. Otherwise, the radio(s) would be unusable without the platform driver. But do feel free to ignore me, if you suspect the firmware of insanity :).
