Thank you for taking the time to report this issue and help to improve
Ubuntu.

Please submit patches in diff -u (unidiff) format.

This patch needs improvement on a couple of points.  First, you don't
want to trigger both /etc/acpi/events/asus-wireless-on and
/etc/acpi/events/asus-wireless-off on the same event; this should be
abstracted better, treating 0000005d as a "toggle" event.  Second,
/usr/share/acpi-support/state-funcs already supports the standard rfkill
abstractions in the kernel, and if this doesn't work with the
asus_laptop driver, that's a bug in that driver - not in acpi-support.
Opening a task on this bug for the kernel side.
