You can of course list an rfkill property inside the device node where it is connected to, but what are you going to to if there is no device node, e.g. the device is enumerated on a bus (e.g. usb, pci, ...)? In such cases it may be better to define a standalone rfkill node similar to the "backlight" device, even if it just contains a gpio or regulator.
