Title:
  Bluetooth won't stay disabled after reboot due to early upstart job

Status in rfkill package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Using a Dell XPS 13 with Ubuntu 12.04.

  In order to restore RF interfaces to their previous state between
  boots, rfkill is run via two Upstart jobs in /etc/init/: rfkill-
  store.conf (run while shutting down) and rfkill-restore.conf (run when
  starting up). However, while rfkill-restore.conf starts on the Upstart
  local-filesystems signal, there is a high probability that the RF kill
  switches in /sys/class/rfkill/ still won't yet be populated (i.e.
  every time on the Dell XPS 13). This results in behavior like the
  following:

  1. Disable bluetooth via applet.
  2. Reboot.
  3. Login.
  4. Observe bluetooth is re-enabled!

  Bluetooth should have stayed disabled, but since the kill switches
  weren't present when rfkill-restore was run, the kill switch states
  were not restored.
