I think Krzysztof already mentioned but a commit message shouln't
describe what the change is (one can look to the patch for that)
but why the change is needed.

So I would had expect something along these lines:

Many Exynos boards (i.e: the Exynos5422 Odroid XU3/XU4) have GPIO
and PWM based LEDs, so enable the needed Kconfig options to have
support for these. Also, some boards use the heartbeat LED trigger
so enable support for this as well.

I don't see an Exynos board using the timer trigger. Do you need it for
some user-space application that uses the sysfs interface? I'm OK with
enabling it but again this should be mentioned in the commit message.

The change looks good to me though so with a better commit message:
