61a83932b8 leds-lp5521: modify the way of setting led device name
Currently the led device name is fetched from the device_type in
I2C_BOARD_INFO which comes from the platform data.  This name is in turn
used to create an entry in sysfs.

If there exists two or more lp5521 on a particular platform, the
device_type in I2C_BOARD_INFO has to be the same, else lp5521 driver probe
wont be called and if used so, results in run time warning "cannot create
sysfs with same name" and hence a failure.

The name that is used to create sysfs entry is to be passed by the struct
led_platform_data.  Hence adding an element of type const char * and
change in lp5521 driver to use this name in creating the led device if
present else use the name obtained by I2C_BOARD_INFO.

500fe14136 leds: driver for National Semiconductor LP5521 chip
This patchset provides support for LP5521 and LP5523 LED driver chips from
National Semicondutor.  Both drivers supports programmable engines and
naturally LED class features.

Documentation is provided as a part of the patchset.  I created "leds"
subdirectory under Documentation.  Perhaps the rest of the leds*
documentation should be moved there.

Datasheets are freely available at National Semiconductor www pages.

This patch:

LP5521 chip is three channel led driver with programmable engines.  Driver
provides support for that chip for direct access via led class or via
programmable engines.
