Subject: [PATCH RESEND] leds: pca9532: change driver name to be unique

This driver handles the variants pca9530-pca9533, so it chose the name
"pca953x". However, there is a gpio driver which decided on the same
name. As a result, those two can't be loaded at the same time. Add a
subsystem prefix to make the driver name unique. Device matching will
not suffer, because both are I2C drivers which match using a
i2c_device_id-table which is not altered.

No changes, added Andrew to CC since most led patches seem to have gone
via his tree in the last time. A similar patch for the gpio driver has
been dropped [1], so this one would be really nice to have in 3.0.
