iwd hanging after cold boot, rfkill required

Hi all,
iwd stopped working after recent upgrade from cold boots:
Found pointers in:

systemd-networkd[303]: wlan0: Could not bring up interface: Operation not possible due to RF-kill

Could do workaround with

[Service]
ExecStartPre=/usr/bin/rfkill unblock all

My question is if this is some sort of regression in rfkill or iwd? Any clues what to look at?
Thanks

Do you have a Windows dual boot and is fast boot disabled?

Hi,
I have dual boot on a different drive, they do not  share EFI,  and the fast boot id disabled
Everything was working until recently:
