Title:
  Support rfkill-any led trigger for Fujitsu u727

Bug description:
  I got new HW from our supplier, which is the Fujitsu u7x7 laptop series based on Skylake hardware.
  It has a single rfkill button and a single LED for wlan and bluetooth. Both device driver currently provide a single rfkill trigger, so the led could just be assigned to one. As a result the upstream kernel got a new "rfkill-any" led trigger to correctly handle the led with multiple rfkill devices. That was added by one of the fujitsu-laptop maintainers and the driver sets it as the default trigger.

      rfkill: Add rfkill-any LED trigger

  Normally I would simply patch the affected modules using DKMS, like the i915_bpo driver, fujitsu-laptop and snd_hda_codec_realtek to support the HW without messing with the kernel packages.
  I'm currently waiting for some reviews, like https://www.spinics.net/lists/platform-driver-x86/msg14606.html

  But the rfkill support is compiled in, so I can't patch it using DKMS.

  So my first proposed fix would be to include a backport of this patch.
  Alternatively rfkill can be compiled as a module, so I can patch it
  and provide an updated module.
