Did you ever try Linux vendor driver for software and hardware LED? 
Seemingly, the vendor driver is different from yours, but I'm pretty 
sure which one is correct because I don't have a RTL8192FU stick.

The definitions are used by this driver: 

#define BIT_LED2EN BIT(21)
#define BIT_LED1SV BIT(11) // the same definition with BIT_LED0SV
#define BIT_LED1CM GENMASK(10, 8) // use the same value of BIT_LED0CM
#define BIT_LED0SV BIT(3)
#define BIT_LED0CM GENMASK(2, 0)
#define LED_MODE_TX_OR_RX_EVENTS 3
#define LED_MODE_SW_CTRL 0

Split this statement into multiple lines and use definitions I provide above.
