This may or may not be related, but I thought it best to inform you about what I just saw anyway:
I accidentally toggled the physical RF kill switch on my laptop and the result
was very much reminiscent of the bug we are discussing (note the QoS and
failure to remove key):

After switching the radios back on, I get
Mar 22 20:14:22 rigel kernel: [1259978.719860] iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: RF_KILL
bit toggled to enable radio.
but *absolutely* *nothing* *else*. No RF LED, nothing.
However, unlike the bug we are discussing, reloading the iwlwifi module fixed
this.
Hope this helps,
Juha
