Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Press wireless hotkey on HP's latest generation laptops generate two rfkill events, prevent airplane mode from turning off.

  One event is from intel-hid and the other one is from hp-wireless.

  [Fix]
  Commit "hwdb: Mask rfkill event from intel-hid on HP platforms", to only use rfkill from hp-wireless.

  [Test]
  With the one-liner fix, press wireless hotkey only generate one rfkill event, hence airplane mode works as expected.

  [Regression Potential]
  Low, use hp-wireless over intel-hid is anticipated.

  any regression would likely result in missed rfkill events.

  [scope]

  this is fixed upstream by commit
  d8a9dd0dc17df77229d079afe29c05ae4a9e2ae9 which is not included in any
  version yet, so this is needed for f and g.

  @kaihengfeng is this needed on b and/or x as well?
