Great, so it all makes sense now.  Thanks once again for investigating.

For maintainers' convenience, I am planning to submit a v3 with all the
tags supplied by everyone who reviewed this series and also some minor
coding style tweaks suggested along the way.

Alex, in the light of your findings quoted above, would it be okay to
also apply your Tested-by to all patches?

Jacek, Pavel, which linux-leds branch would you like me to base v3 on?
