Fix:

BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/workqueue.c:2547
in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, pid: 629, name: wpa_supplicant
2 locks held by wpa_supplicant/629:

 [<f7ff3583>] ieee80211_stop_device+0x13/0x230 [mac80211]

Removing _sync is ok, because if led_on work is currently running
it will be finished before led_off work start to perform, since
they are always queued on the same mac80211 local->workqueue.
