[RFC PATCH 1/8] docs: Add block device LED trigger documentation

[Ian Pilcher]

* Document the sysfs attributes (/sys/class/block/led_trigger_*
  and /sys/class/block/${DEV}/led_trigger) that can be used to
  create, list, and delete block device LED triggers and to
  set and clear device/trigger associations.

* Pull API documentation from block/blk-ledtrig.c (once it
  exists).

+LED Triggers
+============
+
+Available when ``CONFIG_BLK_LED_TRIGGERS=y``.
+
+sysfs interface
+===============
+
+Create a new block device LED trigger::
+
+	# echo foo > /sys/class/block/led_trigger_new
+
+The name must be unique among all LED triggers (not just block device LED
+triggers).
+
+Create two more::
+
+	# echo bar baz > /sys/class/block/led_trigger_new
+
+List the triggers::
+
+	# cat /sys/class/block/led_trigger_list
+	baz: 0
+	bar: 0
+	foo: 0
+
+(The number after each trigger is its reference count.)
+
+Associate a trigger with a block device::
+
+	# cat /sys/class/block/sda/led_trigger
+	(none)
+
+	# echo foo > /sys/class/block/sda/led_trigger
+	# cat /sys/class/block/sda/led_trigger
+	foo
+
+Note that ``foo``'s reference count has increased, and it cannot be deleted::
+
+	# cat /sys/class/block/led_trigger_list
+	baz: 0
+	bar: 0
+	foo: 1
+
+	# echo foo > /sys/class/block/led_trigger_del
+	-bash: echo: write error: Device or resource busy
+
+	# dmesg | tail -n 1
+	[23176.475424] blockdev LED trigger foo still in use
+
+Associate the ``foo`` trigger with an LED::
+
+	# cat /sys/class/leds/input1::scrolllock/trigger
+	none usb-gadget usb-host rc-feedback [kbd-scrolllock] kbd-numlock
+	kbd-capslock kbd-kanalock kbd-shiftlock kbd-altgrlock kbd-ctrllock
+	kbd-altlock kbd-shiftllock kbd-shiftrlock kbd-ctrlllock kbd-ctrlrlock
+	disk-activity disk-read disk-write ide-disk mtd nand-disk panic
+	audio-mute audio-micmute rfkill-any rfkill-none foo bar baz
+
+	# echo foo > /sys/class/leds/input1::scrolllock/trigger
+
+	# cat /sys/class/leds/input1::scrolllock/trigger
+	none usb-gadget usb-host rc-feedback [kbd-scrolllock] kbd-numlock
+	kbd-capslock kbd-kanalock kbd-shiftlock kbd-altgrlock kbd-ctrllock
+	kbd-altlock kbd-shiftllock kbd-shiftrlock kbd-ctrlllock kbd-ctrlrlock
+	disk-activity disk-read disk-write ide-disk mtd nand-disk panic
+	audio-mute audio-micmute rfkill-any rfkill-none [foo] bar baz
+
+Reads and writes to ``sda`` should now cause the scroll lock LED on your
+keyboard to blink (assuming that it has one).
+
+Multiple devices can be associated with a trigger::
+
+	# echo foo > /sys/class/block/sdb/led_trigger
+
+	# cat /sys/class/block/led_trigger_list
+	baz: 0
+	bar: 0
+	foo: 2
+
+Activity on either ``sda`` or ``sdb`` should now be shown by your scroll lock
+LED.
+
+Clear ``sda``'s LED trigger::
+
+	# echo > /sys/class/block/sda/led_trigger
+
+	# cat /sys/class/block/sda/led_trigger
+	(none)
+
+	# cat /sys/class/block/led_trigger_list
+	baz: 0
+	bar: 0
+	foo: 1
+
+And ``sdb``'s trigger::
+
+	# echo > /sys/class/block/sdb/led_trigger
+
+Delete the triggers::
+
+	# echo foo bar baz > /sys/class/block/led_trigger_del
+
+	# cat /sys/class/block/led_trigger_list
+
+	# cat /sys/class/leds/input1::scrolllock/trigger
+	none usb-gadget usb-host rc-feedback [kbd-scrolllock] kbd-numlock
+	kbd-capslock kbd-kanalock kbd-shiftlock kbd-altgrlock kbd-ctrllock
+	kbd-altlock kbd-shiftllock kbd-shiftrlock kbd-ctrlllock kbd-ctrlrlock
+	disk-activity disk-read disk-write ide-disk mtd nand-disk panic
+	audio-mute audio-micmute rfkill-any rfkill-none
