    leds: class: ensure workqueue is initialized before setting brightness · 6d71021a
    Luis Henriques authored
    An application can try to set brightness before all the initialization is
    done, in particular before the workqueue is initialized with the call to
    led_init_core().  Here's a WARNING easy to trigger:

    This patch initializes and acquires the led_access mutex early in the
    of_led_classdev_register function, so that any application trying to write
    to sysfs to set brightness will block until initialization ends.
