No, don't do this.  Do not put "raw" kobjects in the device tree below a
"normal" directory, it's only going to cause massive problems for
userspace tools to be notified of the attributes.

If you want to make led_triggers "real" devices, great, do that!  But
this hybrid "not quite real" is not going to work out well at all in the
end.

Make this a 'struct device' and you will be fine.  That is probably the
simplest of all.  Now if you want to lump them below the leds class or
not is up to you, personally, I'd make it a new one as the structure is
different and this makes it more obvious, but it is up to you as you
know best how userspace is going to interact with these.
