Subject: Re: [PATCH v2 1/2] leds: core: Introduce LED pattern trigger

Hi Baolin,

Thank you for addressing review remarks.

I've played a bit with the interface and I have one conclusion
regarding pattern parsing, please refer below.

Also one tiny optimization request in pattern_trig_activate().

In case user makes a typo while constructing list of pattern tuples,
e.g. he forgets a comma, the pattern gets silently truncated.

User is able to detect the truncation by reading pattern file,
but it is not an immediate feedback anyway.

I propose that pattern format should require number of tuples in the
first position which would allow to get rid of this ambiguity, since
we could verify if the number of parsed tuples is as intended.

Instead of introducing hardware_pattern boolean, let's log warning
message here in case:

if (!!led_cdev->pattern_set ^ !!led_cdev->pattern_clear)
	dev_warn(led_cdev->dev, "Hardware pattern ops validation failed");

And later, having this validation behind us, we can be sure that we have
hardware pattern support when led_cdev->pattern_set is initialized.
