Subject: [PATCH] leds: core: Use blocking op for system suspend

Sometimes LED won't be turned off by LED_CORE_SUSPENDRESUME flag upon
system suspend.

led_set_brightness_nopm() uses schedule_work() to set LED brightness.
However, there's no guarantee that the scheduled work gets executed
because no one calls flush_scheduled_work().

As flush_scheduled_work() may affect other drivers' suspend routines,
take a more contained approach which uses blocking op to make sure the
LED gets turned off.
