Pull LED subsystem updates from Jacek Anaszewski:
 "Besides regular driver updates, we introduce a portion of LED core
  improvements, that allow to avoid the need for using work queues in
  the LED class drivers, that set brightness in a blocking way.

  Affected LED class drivers are being optimized accordingly.

+Brightness setting API
+======================
+
+LED subsystem core exposes following API for setting brightness:
+
+    - led_set_brightness : it is guaranteed not to sleep, passing LED_OFF stops
+		blinking,
+    - led_set_brightness_sync : for use cases when immediate effect is desired -
+		it can block the caller for the time required for accessing
+		device registers and can sleep, passing LED_OFF stops hardware
+		blinking, returns -EBUSY if software blink fallback is enabled.
