[PATCH v6 1/6] leds: Add new API to derive a LED name

From: Dan Murphy
Date: Fri Dec 01 2017 - 11:57:05 EST


Create an API that is called to derive the
LED name from either the DT label in the child
node or if that does not exist from the parent
node name and an alternate label that is passed in.
