it is not for that hardware, it is for some GPS devices.

static const struct acpi_device_id rfkill_acpi_match[] = {
        { "BCM4752", RFKILL_TYPE_GPS },
        { "LNV4752", RFKILL_TYPE_GPS },

Actually this should be done quickly since the Realtek hciattach / btattach hacks are not even upstream either since that is unmergable code. Even a basic hci_rtl.c driver would be better than nothing.
