Subject: [PATCH v2 01/13] leds: core: The -ENOTSUPP should never be seen by user space

Luckily there is no user which checks for returned code and actually
returns it, but since the function is exported any user may try to return
an error code from it to user space, usually during probe phase,

Replace -ENOTSUPP by -EOPNOTSUPP when returning from exported function.

Fixes: 13ae79bbe4c2 ("leds: core: Drivers shouldn't enforce SYNC/ASYNC brightness setting")
