No, the key also does not work without fujitsu_laptop module.

The key is one of two special keys - one for ECO mode (which I have
not tested or used at all) and the wireless key which switches of all
wireless functions (WLAN and bluetooth). They are not part of the
"main" keyboard. According to the output of "rfkill list" it works
indeed as a hardware switch (Hard blocked: yes/no).
