CID: 201206-11376 Asus X55A (wireless card: Ralink RT5390)

The wireless function key does not work properly on this system.

Wireless could be disabled by pressing the wireless function key,
but cannot bring it back on.

Before pressing the wireless function key (wireless is working):
0: asus-wlan: Wireless LAN
 Soft blocked: yes
 Hard blocked: no
1: phy0: Wireless LAN
 Soft blocked: no
 Hard blocked: no

After (wireless turned off):
0: asus-wlan: Wireless LAN
 Soft blocked: yes
 Hard blocked: no
1: phy0: Wireless LAN
 Soft blocked: no
 Hard blocked: no

Press again (wireless does not work):
0: asus-wlan: Wireless LAN
 Soft blocked: yes
 Hard blocked: no
1: phy0: Wireless LAN
 Soft blocked: no
 Hard blocked: no
