Subject: [PATCH 07/10] staging: r8188eu: don't include rtw_led.h from rtw_cmd.h

The rtw_cmd.h does not need any definitions from the led layer, there's
no reason to include rtw_led.h.

When I tried to remove this component

struct led_priv {
   struct adapter *padapter;
   ...

I saw compiler errors because of this chain of include files:
drv_types.h -> rtw_cmd.h -> rtw_led.h

rtw_led.h uses struct adapter before it sees the definiton near the end
of drv_types.h. (It seems that a simple struct adapter * prevents this
problem.)

The best option for fixing this issue is to not include rtw_led.h in
rtw_cmd.h.
