Ok, here some first test result:
kernel 2.6.29-rc8 plus only your patch.

Nice.

Now I have loads of rfkill switches:
/sys/class/rfkill# for i in rfkill*/name ; do echo $i; cat $i; done
rfkill10/name
5100AGN
rfkill11/name
sony-wifi
rfkill12/name
sony-bluetooth
rfkill13/name
sony-wwan
rfkill15/name
hso-0


The interesting thing is that the last one hso-0 does not do anything
when echoing 0/1 onto the state, while echoing 0/1 onto rfkill13/state
the device is actually dis/enabled.

Fine.

Especially since I can now also turn on and off the bluetooth device.
Great.

Thanks a lot!

Best wishes

Norbert
