Subject: [PATCH] leds-pca955x: Fix race condition while setting brightness on several LEDs

When issuing the following command:
for I in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7; do
  echo 0 > /sys/class/leds/pca955x\:${I}/brightness;
done
It is possible that all the pca955x_read_ls calls are done sequentially
before any pca955x_write_ls call is done. This updates the LS only to the
last LED update in its set.
Fix this by using a global lock for the pca995x device during
pca955x_led_work. Also used a struct for shared data bewteen all LEDs.
