Hi all!

The first patch moves the rfkill sysfs ABI Documentation to Documentation/ABI
and deprecates the state and claim file. 

The second patch creates a replacement for the state file. Instead of exporting
some made-up state we just export the state of the 2 kill lines. 

The first patch should probably go into 2.6.34, as to warn users 
(if there are any) early about this removal. 
If there is no intent to remove the broken files, the feature-removal-schedule hunk 
should probably be skipped. 

Cheers,
Flo
