ASUS USB-N13 C1 is a wifi adapter based on a RTL8192FU chip and its LED
doesn't blink with the rtl8xxxu driver. This patch fix this via writing
the correct value to the register "REG_LEDCFG0".

This was tested with these two wifi adapters:
ASUS USB-N13 C1	(vid=0x0b05, pid=0x18f1, rfe_type=0x1)
MERCURY MW310UH	(vid=0x0bda, pid=0xf192, rfe_type=0x5)

Did you ever try Linux vendor driver for software and hardware LED? 
Seemingly, the vendor driver is different from yours, but I'm pretty 
sure which one is correct because I don't have a RTL8192FU stick.

The definitions are used by this driver: 

#define BIT_LED2EN BIT(21)
#define BIT_LED1SV BIT(11) // the same definition with BIT_LED0SV
#define BIT_LED1CM GENMASK(10, 8) // use the same value of BIT_LED0CM
#define BIT_LED0SV BIT(3)
#define BIT_LED0CM GENMASK(2, 0)
#define LED_MODE_TX_OR_RX_EVENTS 3
#define LED_MODE_SW_CTRL 0

Split this statement into multiple lines and use definitions I provide above.

Can you explain in the commit message why you changed the
LED_ON and LED_OFF branches? It's not obvious to me and they
don't have anything to do with the hardware-controlled blinking.

My Comfast CF-826F still works fine with this patch.

Hi,

Sorry that I didn't explain this clearly.
After some researches these days, I came to some conclusions:

1. The LED of MERCURY MW310UH and COMFAST CF-826F seems to be controlled by
   REG_LEDCFG1, and currently rtl8xxxu controls the LED through writing
   some suitable values to this register, so MW310UH and CF-826F work fine
   with rtl8xxxu.

2. The LED of ASUS USB-N13 C1 seems to be controlled by another register 
   "REG_LEDCFG0" for unknown reason, so when I write 1 or 2 to 
   /sys/class/leds/rtl8xxxu-usbX-Y/brightness, the LED doesn't turn on 
   or blink because the register "REG_LEDCFG0" is not filled with a suitable 
   value, This is why I changed the LED_ON and LED_OFF branches.

I will modify the commit message in the next version of patch, thanks.
