Setting all (I assume they are multipexed to the same physical LED)
these to 0 turned off the wifi LED on an X301:

nemi:/etc# grep '' /sys/class/leds/iwl-phy0::*/brightness
/sys/class/leds/iwl-phy0::assoc/brightness:0
/sys/class/leds/iwl-phy0::radio/brightness:0
/sys/class/leds/iwl-phy0::RX/brightness:0
/sys/class/leds/iwl-phy0::TX/brightness:0

Other than that, I liked the patch solution :-)
