[PATCH v7 2/2] leds: Add control of the voltage/current regulator to the LED core

From: Jean-Jacques Hiblot
Date: Mon Oct 21 2019 - 13:48:44 EST


A LED is usually powered by a voltage/current regulator. Let the LED core
know about it. This allows the LED core to turn on or off the power supply
as needed.

Because turning ON/OFF a regulator might block, it is not done
synchronously but done in a workqueue. Turning ON the regulator is always
done as soon as possible, turning it off can be delayed by setting the
"power-off-delays-ms" property. The intent is to keep the regulator
powered on when the blink rate of the LED is high.

A sysfs interface is made available to dynamically enable/disable this
feature and tune the off-delay.
