Building htmldocs with Sphinx, I got:

Documentation/leds/leds-class.rst:190: WARNING: Unexpected indentation.
Documentation/leds/leds-class.rst:192: WARNING: Block quote ends without a blank line; unexpected unindent.

I have applied the fixup on the API bullet list above:

 With HARDWARE_CONTROLLED blink_mode hw_control_status/start/stop is optional
 and any software only trigger will reject activation as the LED supports only
