Hello Anthony,

On 201304-13210 + 3.14rc2 kernel, with /etc/modprobe.d/dell.conf created and the following line added
options dell_laptop force_rfkill=1
the wireless hotkey works

Steps:
1. Install 12.04.4 + 3.14rc2 kernel
2. Added "options dell_laptop force_rfkill=1" into /etc/modprobe.d/dell.conf
3. Reboot
4. Test the hotkey

Actual result:
* Wireless hotkey works as expected.
