TL;DR: I was wrong, sorry for the noise.

After a bit more testing it seems that while the button does indeed seem
to toggle the hard-block, it also triggers the flight mode toggle from
userland (GNOME). These do not have to be in sync (pressing the button
can at the same time disable the hard-block, but enable the soft-block).
Adding the model to no_hw_rfkill does not disable GNOMEs flight mode
when the button is pressed. So even though the flight mode button can be
used as a workaround on affected models, they should still be added to
the no_hw_rfkill list. I will prepare a patch for my S130.
