Can we make it multi_index? We are already in leds directory, and it
is a bit shorter.

Please drop this one.

And let this one be multi_intensity.

I'd drop this reference. multi_intensity file controls both hue and
saturation AFAICT.

I don't believe we can guarantee that. 255/255/255 will produce
different colors on different hardware (not white), and 43/226/138
will also produce different colors.
I changed it to be a bit more ambiguous.

Hmm. We should really make sure LEDs are ordered as "red green
blue". Yes, userspace should support any order, but...
Ordering is not guaranteed since it is based on the DT ordering. I don't
think we can mandate that these LEDs be put in order in the DT.
Besides the framework and the device driver do not care what color is
where only the user space needs to care. The FW and device driver only
care about the brightness, intensity and channel.

delete "parent", twice?

It would be good to get this under ~80 characters. Perhaps shorter
identifiers would help... shortening multicolor_ to mc_?

This checks for "not enough" intensities. Do we need check for "too
many" intensities?
We ignore anything greater then mcled_cdev->num_colors. So if this is
set to 3 we only read the first 3 values.
So we cannot read more then what is set by the DT.

This will result in extra " " before end of line.
Please don't use "%s", "\n" to add single character. "\n" would be enough.

Do we need to include these stubs? I guess it is okay to have them,
OTOH I'd expect drivers to depend on MULTICOLOR being available...
Jacek Answered this.
