Guys,

sorry for the delay. This one did in fact not change too much after all.

The biggest points that are still kind of open are the naming of the
LEDs. If what is proposed here is acceptable it is not open from my
side.

The other big point was "using a generic gpio" driver as a basis. My
current understanding of that point is, that such a driver does not yet
exist. Meaning an introduction of the abstractions can and probably
should wait for a second user. Without the second user it is just hard
to test and find the right abstraction, plus we will end up with more
code meaning more work for everyone.

regards,
Henning
