Few comments below.

This isn't true.

You didn't count extra platform driver. You can't #ifdef it. The only way
you can avoid this is creating leds-gpio-base.c or something, and place the
helper functions there.

The create_gpio_led() interface is also quite weird, since it implies that
we have to pass two GPIO LED "handles": struct gpio_led_data (that we
allocated) and temporary struct gpio_led. And this helper function will
just assign things from one struct to another, and then will register the
led.

With OF driver I don't need "struct gpio_led". Only the platform driver
need this so platforms could pass gpio led info through it, while with OF
we're getting all information from the device tree.

I'm not opposed to another struct used in the OF driver though, I'm rather
opposed to the indirectness it introduces. But I also believe that we
can refactor the code so it will look neat. I just don't want to do
all this churn to save mere 30 lines of code.

We don't need blink_set. Personally I think that accepting blink
support in leds-gpio driver was... um, not right. In OF driver we'll
never use it. We support just GPIO LEDs, not PWM LEDs.
