Subject: [PATCH v8 01/13] leds: add support for hardware driven LEDs
Some LEDs can be driven by hardware (for example a LED connected to
an ethernet PHY or an ethernet switch can be configured to blink on
activity on the network, which in software is done by the netdev trigger).
To do such offloading, LED driver must support this and a supported
trigger must be used.
LED driver should declare the correct blink_mode supported and should set
the blink_mode parameter to one of LED_BLINK_HW_CONTROLLED or
LED_BLINK_SWHW_CONTROLLED.
The trigger will check this option and fail to activate if the blink_mode
is not supported.
By default if a LED driver doesn't declare blink_mode,
LED_BLINK_SW_CONTROLLED is assumed.
The LED must implement 3 main API:
- hw_control_status():
This asks the LED driver if hardware mode is enabled
or not.
- hw_control_start():
This will simply enable the hardware mode for the LED.
- hw_control_stop():
This will simply disable the hardware mode for the LED.
It's advised to the driver to put the LED in the old state
but this is not enforcerd and putting the LED off is also
accepted.
With LED_BLINK_HW_CONTROLLED blink_mode hw_control_status/start/stop is
optional and any software only trigger will reject activation as the LED
supports only hardware mode.
An additional config CONFIG_LEDS_HARDWARE_CONTROL is added to add support
for LEDs that can be controlled by hardware.

+blink_mode parameter to one of LED_BLINK_HW_CONTROLLED or LED_BLINK_SWHW_CONTROLLED.
+The trigger will check this option and fail to activate if the blink_mode is not

+By default if a LED driver doesn't declare blink_mode, LED_BLINK_SW_CONTROLLED is
