The new kernel (v3.9-raring) doesn't totally fixed the bug, some times it works, some times it doesn't work.

When it works:
- the wi-fi led stays off after boot;
- the wi-fi led simply doesn't work even if I use Fn-F2 or sudo rfkill block/unblock all, but the interface connects and disconnects form my wi-fi router;
- rfkill list shows just one interface:
1: phy0: Wireless LAN
 Soft blocked: no
 Hard blocked: no

When it doesn't work:
- the wi-fi led is on after boot;
- the wi-fi led turns on and off if I use Fn-F2 key or sudo rfkill block/unblock all;
- rfkill shows two interfaces:
0: phy0: Wireless LAN
 Soft blocked: no
 Hard blocked: yes
1: asus-wlan: Wireless LAN
 Soft blocked: no
 Hard blocked: no

I'm trying to find why it randomly works, if there's any sequence of restart/shutdown that makes it work.

I think the bug is not fixed, and I'm marking it as "kernel-bug-exists-upstream"
