Subject: [PATCH] leds: triggers: Return from led_trigger_set() if there is
 nothing to do

From: Jacek Anaszewski <jacek.anaszewski@...il.com>

If led_trigger_set() is called with "trig" argument set to NULL, and there
is no trigger to remove then the function should return immediately so
as to avoid doing unnecessary allocation and sending uevent.
