On inspection of led_trigger_event() it seems to grab
a read_lock before calling the driver.
This means that USB drivers cannot use LED triggers.

I will see if I can simulate the behavior differently
where LED classes are still used but rt2x00 implements
its own version of LED triggers. Most likely this will result
in rt2x00 not be using the triggers provided by mac80211
for any of the drivers.

For the time being LED support for rt2500usb and rt73usb
will be disabled with CONFIG_BROKEN. A better solution will
hopefully be ready for 2.6.27.
