Subject: [PATCH] platform/x86/acer-wmi: Detect RF Button capability

If a machine reports a RF Button in the communication button device
bitmap, we need to remove it before calling Get Device Status otherwise
it will return the "Undefined device" (0xE2) error code.

Although this may be a BIOS bug, we don't really need to get or set the
RF Button status. The status indicator LED embedded in the button is
controlled by firmware logic, depending on the status of the wireless
radios present on the machine (WiFi || WWAN).

This commit fixes the wireless status indicator LED on the Acer
TravelMate P648-G2-MG, and cleans the following message from the kernel
log: "Get Current Device Status failed: 0xe2 - 0x0".

Yes, it's possible a BIOS bug.

Because the type aa reports that the 14 bit is raised in bitmap, but it can
not be used to query the device status.

Patchwork by some reason doesn't recognize this tag (presumably it
doesn't allow leading spaces in that line). Thus, I would ask you to
start tags in new lines without leading spaces.
This one I'm about to apply manually, no need to resend.
