Then compat-wireless built and worked ok. The rfkill commit changed a two files (an include/net/* and an Kconfig) which doesn't exist in compat-wireless (I just press return to skip during the revert). I suppose the include will need to go to the top of whatever files needing it, the Kconfig part will need to go to config.mk ... but I haven't looked in detail and other change may be needed.
