This will work correctly - I added a comment about it in v5.

I didn't want to offer users a trigger that doesn't do anything useful
on their system. Since you are the second person suggesting registering
both, I did just that in v5.

Yes, but it doesn't matter anymore in v5.

I measured the overheads on ARM Cortex-A8 (TI AM335x) running on 600 MHz.
Duration of usb_led_activity():
- with no LED attached to the trigger: 2 ± 1 µs
- with one GPIO LED attached to the trigger: 2 ± 1 µs or 8 ± 2 µs (two peaks in histogram)
Duration of functions calling usb_led_activity()
(with my patches applied and no led attached to the trigger):
- __usb_hcd_giveback_urb(): 10 - 25 µs
- usb_gadget_giveback_request(): 2 - 6 µs
With no LED attached, usb_led_activity() consists basically of
read_lock() and read_unlock().
I'll send v5 in a while.
Thanks,
