It's best to Cc maintainers directly, as many of them (such as myself)
don't follow lkml all that closely.

Comments below. BTW, Grant is the new GPIO maintainer, so I've cc'd
him as well.

This should probably be more unique; something like "leds-alix2".

Presumably you want to return -ENODEV here, especially since your
driver has no method for unloading.

Ditto.

Why is this arch_initcall rather than module_init? If possible, it
would be good to have an unload hook as well.
