This works on an Inspiron 1420 and XPS1330 as far as I was able to test.
The physical rfkill switch sets 'Hard blocked: yes' for 'phy0: Wireless
LAN', and everything returns to normal 'blocked: no' when the switch is
disabled. I was not able to figure out how to get BIT(16) cleared. Is
that a keyboard function? Anyways,
