Add of software-based sanity to rfkill and rfkill-input so that it can reproduce what hardware-based EPO switches do, blocking all transmitters and locking down any further attempts to unblock them until the switch is deactivated. rfkill-input is responsible for issuing the EPO control requests, like before. While an rfkill EPO is active, all transmitters are locked to one of the BLOCKED states and all attempts to change that through the rfkill API (userspace and kernel) will be either ignored or return -EPERM errors. The lock will be released upon receipt of EV_SW SW_RFKILL_ALL ON by rfkill-input, or should modular rfkill-input be unloaded. This makes rfkill and rfkill-input extend the operation of an existing wireless master kill switch to all wireless devices in the system, even those that are not under hardware or firmware control. Since the above is the expected operational behavior for the master rfkill switch, the EPO lock functionality is not optional. Also, extend rfkill-input to allow for three different behaviors when it receives an EV_SW SW_RFKILL_ALL ON input event. The user can set which behavior he wants through the master_switch_mode parameter: master_switch_mode = 0: EV_SW SW_RFKILL_ALL ON just unlocks rfkill controller state changes (so that the rfkill userspace and kernel APIs can now be used to change rfkill controller states again), but doesn't change any of their states (so they will all remain blocked). This is the safest mode of operation, as it requires explicit operator action to re-enable a transmitter. master_switch_mode = 1: EV_SW SW_RFKILL_ALL ON causes rfkill-input to attempt to restore the system to the state before the last EV_SW SW_RFKILL_ALL OFF event, or to the default global states if no EV_SW SW_RFKILL_ALL OFF ever happened. This is the recommended mode of operation for laptops. master_switch_mode = 2: tries to unblock all rfkill controllers (i.e. enable all transmitters) when an EV_SW SW_RFKILL_ALL ON event is received. This is the default mode of operation, as it mimics the previous behavior of rfkill-input. In order to implement these features in a clean way, the entire event handling of rfkill-input was refactored into a single worker function. Protection against input event DoS (repeatedly firing rfkill events for rfkill-input to process) was removed during the code refactoring. It will be added back in a future patch. Note that with these changes, rfkill-input doesn't need to explicitly handle any radio types for which KEY_<radio type> or SW_<radio type> events do not exist yet. Code to handle EV_SW SW_{WLAN,WWAN,BLUETOOTH,WIMAX,...} was added as it might be needed in the future (and its implementation is not that obvious), but is currently #ifdef'd out to avoid wasting resources.
