Subject: [PATCH/RFC] tools/leds: Add led_notify_mon program for monitoring
 brightness changes

LED subsystem supports POLLPRI on "brightness" sysfs file of LED
class devices. This tool demonstrates how to use the feature.

This app doesn't work properly so far as poll seems not to clear
POLLPRI flag once it is set. Maybe someone will know the reason
or more appropriate approach to handle sysfs_notify_dirent.
To test the feature just checkout branch [0].
