Part of the reason for this is that discoverability of the patch was
low -- it was only ever sent on linux-leds and no other list.

Cc:ing lkml is useful since most of us are subscribed to it and a
quick search for patches will find it. In addition to the subsystem
list of course, since subsystem maintainers don't want to have to
monitor all of LKML for patches to their code.
