I'm fine with that, and I actually left room for it by passing the exact
error to the new mgmt_set_powered_failed function. Would you prefer a
completely new error only used for rfkill or reuse one of our existing
errors. We've e.g. got MGMT_STATUS_REJECTED which could be used for
rfkill and MGMT_STATUS_FAILED for anything else.
