Whoops, I didn't realize there was another private trigger being added
during the same cycle.

I have some additional review comments on the implementation of the
private trigger. See my reply to the relevant patch.

I would like to ask a similar question, too. The leds part of my series
has been applied[1], leaving the pdx86 part waiting for further review or
apply.

Ilpo, may I ask about your preference here? Would you prefer to merge LED
next and apply the pdx86 part[2] of my series this cycle, or prefer to
wait until the next cycle? If the latter is preferred, should I resubmit
the series then?
