+Subject: [PATCH] usb: core: usbport: Use proper LED API to fix potential crash
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+Calling brightness_set manually isn't safe as some LED drivers don't
+implement this callback. The best idea is to just use a proper helper
+which will fallback to the brightness_set_blocking callback if needed.

+This fixes:
