[PATCH 0/5] Extend the LED panic trigger

[Ezequiel Garcia]

As per commit 916fe61995 ("leds: trigger: Introduce a kernel panic LED
trigger"), the kernel now supports a new LED trigger to hook on
the panic blink.

However, the only way of using this is to dedicate a LED device
to this function.

To overcome this limitation, the present series introduces the
capability to switch the LED trigger of certain LED devices upon
a kernel panic (using the panic notifier).

The decision of which LEDs should be switched to the panic trigger
is left to each LED device driver. As an example, a devicetree
boolean property is introduced and used in the leds-gpio driver.

Feedback and other ideas on how to implement this are most welcomed.

Ezequiel Garcia (5):
  leds: triggers: Allow to switch the trigger to "panic" on a kernel
    panic
  leds: triggers: Add a led_trigger_event_nosleep API
  leds: trigger: panic: Use led_trigger_event_nosleep
  devicetree: leds: Introduce "panic-blink" optional property
  leds: gpio: Support the panic-blink firmware property
