[PATCH v4 1/3] leds: Require valid fwnode pointer for composing name

From: Alexander Dahl
Date: Fri Sep 11 2020 - 12:10:07 EST


The function 'led_compose_name()' is called in
'led_classdev_register_ext(()' only and in its implementation it always
parses the fwnode passed with the init_data struct. If there's no
fwnode, EINVAL is returned and 'led_classdev_register_ext()' returns
early.

If this is detected early the same fallback mechanism can be used , as
if init_data itself is NULL. This will allow drivers to pass fully
populated 'init_data' or sparse initialized 'init_data' with a NULL
fwnode in a more elegant way with only one function call.

Fixes: bb4e9af0348d ("leds: core: Add support for composing LED class device names")
