The wlan_ctrl_by_user detection was introduced by commita50bd128f2("asus-wmi: record wlan status while controlled by userapp"). Quoting from that commit's commit message: """ When you call WMIMethod(DSTS, 0x00010011) to get WLAN status, it may return (1) 0x00050001 (On) (2) 0x00050000 (Off) (3) 0x00030001 (On) (4) 0x00030000 (Off) (5) 0x00000002 (Unknown) (1), (2) means that the model has hardware GPIO for WLAN, you can call WMIMethod(DEVS, 0x00010011, 1 or 0) to turn WLAN on/off. (3), (4) means that the model doesn’t have hardware GPIO, you need to use API or driver library to turn WLAN on/off, and call WMIMethod(DEVS, 0x00010012, 1 or 0) to set WLAN LED status. After you set WLAN LED status, you can see the WLAN status is changed with WMIMethod(DSTS, 0x00010011). Because the status is recorded lastly (ex: Windows), you can use it for synchronization. (5) means that the model doesn’t have WLAN device. WLAN is the ONLY special case with upper rule. """ The wlan_ctrl_by_user flag should be set on 0x0003000? ((3), (4) above) return values, but the flag mistakenly also gets set on laptops with 0x0005000? ((1), (2)) return values. This is causing rfkill problems on laptops where 0x0005000? is returned. Fix the check to only set the wlan_ctrl_by_user flag for 0x0003000? return values.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
