You mean mcled_cdev (1 line below) or something different?

If the former, why not just use mcled_cdev directly?

Why not just use the first element in the mc case?

Do these 2 on the declaration lines.

Please consider how useful this really is and delete it if possible.

This is an unused variable, no?

NUM_LEDS?

These magic numbers should be defined.
