[PATCH 1/3] leds: trigger: Introduce a kernel panic LED trigger

Hi Ezequiel,

Thanks for the patch. I've tested it on exynos4412-trats2 board
with leds-aat1290 driver, by executing:

echo "c" > /proc/sysrq-trigger

I was able to notice the blinking then.

Applied to the for-next branch of linux-leds.git.

Thanks,
Jacek Anaszewski
