Hi Pavel,

The commit log is lacking the proper "leds: triggers: ".

Also...

This looks fishy.

Maybe you should use a default-state = "keep" instead? (and you'll have
to support it in the LED driver).

That'll give you proper "don't touch the LED if it was turned on" behavior,
which is what you seem to want.
