Subject: [PATCH 01/24] rt2x00: Remove rt73usb_get_tsf
The get_tsf function must be atomic according to mac80211,
this means that rt73usb is not capable of supporting this feature
since all USB register access functions require sleeping.
Place rt73usb_get_tsf between #if 0 statements to disable it,
so that it can be easily readded when the atomic requirement
has been removed.
