led can not be turned off normally when rfkill is blocked, the cause is
the led_turn_off() function exit as not expected:
drivers/net/wireless/rtl818x/rtl8187/leds.c:
static void led_turn_off(struct work_struct *work)
{
[...]
/* Don't change the LED, when the device is down. */
if (!priv->vif || priv->vif->type == NL80211_IFTYPE_UNSPECIFIED)
return ;
[...]
When rfkill is blocked, the function calling order looks like this:
net/mac80211/iface.c:
ieee80211_do_stop
-> drv_remove_interface = rtl8187_remove_interface
-> ieee80211_stop_device
-> led_set_brightness
-> led_turn_off
-> drv_stop = rtl8187_stop
rtl8187_remove_interface() set priv->vif to NULL, so, led_turn_off()
will return and will not be able to turn off the led. delay the setting
of priv->vif to rtl8187_stop() can solve it.
