Merge tag 'leds_for_4.10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/j.anaszewski/linux-leds
Pull LED updates from Jacek Anaszewski:
- userspace LED class driver - it can be useful for testing triggers
and can also be used to implement virtual LEDs
- LED class driver for NIC78bx device
- LED core fixes for preventing potential races while setting
brightness when software blinking is enabled
- improvements in LED documentation to mention semantics on changing
brightness while trigger is active
