** Description changed:
+ [SRU Justification]
+
+ BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2109314
+
+ [ Impact ]
+
+ v6.14-rc1 commit 5190594bcec2 ("wifi: mt76: mt7921: add rfkill_poll for
+ hardware rfkill"), along with linux-firmware commit 15442c631c6b
+ ("linux-firmware: update firmware for MT7920 WiFi device"), implemented
+ a feature that allows disable WiFi function from BIOS. The latter is
+ under upstream tag 20250311, and linux-firmware/plucky version
+ 20250310.git9e1370d3-0ubuntu1.
+
+ [ Test Plan ]
+
+ 1. Enable "Wireless Radio Control" option in BIOS Setup;
+
+ 2. Connect a Ethernet cable to SUT's LOM port in Ubuntu OS
+
+ 3. WiFi interface should be hardware disabled(rfkilled).
+ ```
+ $ rfkill
+ ID TYPE DEVICE SOFT HARD
+ 0 wlan phy0 unblocked blocked
+ 1 wlan wlp0s20f3 unblocked blocked
+ 2 bluetooth hci0 unblocked unblocked
+ ```
+
+ [ Where problems could occur ]
+
+ Chip firmware provides an additional capability flag indicating the
+ support. Without that, this change takes no effect.
+
+ [ Other Info ]
+
+ While the kernel patch is already in v6.14-rc1, nominate for oem-6.11
+ only.
+
+ ========== original bug report ==========
+
[Steps to reproduce]
1. Enable "Wireless Radio Control" option in BIOS Setup;
2. Connect a Ethernet cable to SUT's LOM port in Ubuntu OS, the Wi-Fi
option is still enabled --> issue.
[Expected result]
Wi-Fi option should be disabled when connect a Ethernet cable to SUT's
LOM port with "Wireless Radio Control" on.
[Actual result]
Wi-Fi option is enabled when connect a Ethernet cable to SUT's LOM port
with "Wireless Radio Control" on.
