Subject: rt2x00: avoid introducing a USB dependency in the rt2x00lib module

From: Stanislaw Gruszka <sgruszka@redhat.com>

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.
