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.
