Subject: [PATCH/RFC 02/51] leds: Improve asynchronous path of setting brightness

led_set_brightness_async function didn't set the brightness in an
asynchronous way in all cases. It was mistakenly assuming that all
LED subsystem drivers use work queue in their brightness_set op,
whereas only half of them does that. Modify the function to assure
setting brightness asynchronously in all cases by using existing
set_brightness_delayed work queue.

The work queue is now made using led_set_brightness_sync for setting
brightness. This modification changes the initial purpose of the work
queue, which was used for setting brightness only if blink timer was
active. In order to keep this functionality a LED_BLINK_DISABLE flag
is being introduced, as well as a new 'new_brightness_value' field
is being added to the struct led_classdev. All these improvements
entail changes in the led_brightness_set function.
