Subject: rt2x00: avoid introducing a USB dependency in the rt2x00lib module
From: Stanislaw Gruszka <sgruszka@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 6232c17438ed01f43665197db5a98a4a4f77ef47 upstream.
As reported by Felix:
Though protected by an ifdef, introducing an usb symbol dependency in
the rt2x00lib module is a major inconvenience for distributions that
package kernel modules split into individual packages.
Get rid of this unnecessary dependency by calling the usb related
function from a more suitable place.
