rfkill: clarify meaning of rfkill states
rfkill really should have been named rfswitch. As it is, one can get
confused whether RFKILL_STATE_ON means the KILL switch is on (and
therefore, the radio is being *blocked* from operating), or whether it
means the RADIO rf output is on.
Clearly state that RFKILL_STATE_ON means the radio is *unblocked* from
operating (i.e. there is no rf killing going on).
