Hi,

it appears that in kernel 2.6.29.2 the behaviour of the rfkill subsystem
has changed. Under 2.6.29.2 I could trigger a suspend-to-ram, then wake
up the system, and everything continued smoothly.

Under 2.6.29.2 strange things happen after a wake-up:

* Wlan and bluetooth power, which had been off before suspend, suddenly
are ON.

* The numbering of the links in /sys/class/rfkill has changed. Formerly
rfkill1, rfkill2..., now something like rfkill10, rfkill11... The
numbers increase with every suspend.

it sounds like you are unloading the module before suspend and loading it again afterwards. The effects you are the same when I unload and load the module for testing.

This is weird... When it happened, I was in hospital. Now that I'm home again, the effect has disappeared completely. The only difference I noticed is that the UMTS signal was rather weak in the hospital and is quite strong here.
Or maybe the hardware didn't like the medical environment.

Greetings,
Bernd
