There is a key event in input.h called KEY_TOUCHPAD_TOGGLE.

Calling the S000 function as

call_fext_func(FUNC_RFKILL, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0) should give you the indicator
mask
call_fext_func(FUNC_RFKILL, 0x1, 0x0, 0x0) should give you the touchpad
and brightness indicator and actually reset both indicator states

>From the asl, valid first parameters are 0x01 (touch + bright), 0x04
(rfkill) and 0x05 (? something else regarding RF, as it also uses FSMI 0x91)

P.S. after rebuilding my kernel I can finally build external modules
again. Building the deb-pkg target on amd64 for i386 kernel, results in
the correct kernel, but amd64-compiled tools needed for modpost.
