Subject: staging: rtl8192e: Remove call_usermodehelper starting RadioPower.sh
From: Philipp Hortmann <philipp.g.hortmann@xxxxxxxxx>
commit fe413a074a93d56f89e322c786aad8639afe76b4 upstream.
Remove call_usermodehelper starting /etc/acpi/events/RadioPower.sh that
is not available. This script is not part of the kernel and it is not
officially available on the www. The result is that this lines are just
dead code.
