Subject: Re: [PATCH v5 15/16] leds: Add common LED binding parsing support to
 LED class/core

Hi Matti,

Thank you for the patch. If your driver does not depend
on it then please send is separately. Besides, we would require
to convert many of current LED drivers to verify how the
proposed parsing mechanism will work with them. I've been testing
my LED name composition series using QEMU and stubbing things in
drivers where necessary and I propose to use the same approach
in this case.

Best regards,
Jacek Anaszewski
