I lost the context here.

I merged Alexander's patch as a59ce6584d566847980f9dcad5343cd9856145c8
which modified the mc13xxx.h. But all things are related to LED driver
and only add several lines. Next time I will ask Lee to give an review
and ack.

So probably this patch has to wait for
a59ce6584d566847980f9dcad5343cd9856145c8 merged.

Thanks,
-Bryan
