Just that you are aware of it:
This is a racy access to the radio_hw_enable variable, as we don't take
the mutex here (we can't and we don't want). But it's OK, since nobody
cares if the LED is racing for a second and displays the wrong state
for a second.
Same goes for the phy->radio_on access.

The patch is ACKed by me.
Thanks for the heads-up on the raciness of the access. I'm still learning what can and cannot be done.
