linux/leds-fixes/drivers/leds/rgb/leds-group-multicolor.c: In function ‘leds_gmc_probe’:
linux/leds-fixes/drivers/leds/rgb/leds-group-multicolor.c:109:49: error: ‘struct led_classdev’ has no member named ‘color’
linux/leds-fixes/drivers/leds/rgb/leds-group-multicolor.c:120:13: error: ‘struct led_classdev’ has no member named ‘color’
