I've already pulled your patches into my staging tree, but then stumbled over the USB LED as Power LED thing:

https://git.openwrt.org/openwrt/staging/adrian.git

I personally don't like that very much, and it also doesn't strictly match the policy of sticking to the vendor's use of LEDs. However, we also do not strictly follow that policy for other devices, e.g. the TP-Link CPE devices where one of the WLAN strength indicators are used for signaling.
Still, if the LED is assigned to USB it will at least irritate some users.

Despite that, I remember that for TP-Link WDR3600/WDR4300 a nested setup was required to get USB hub working:

https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/blob/master/target/linux/ath79/dts/ar9344_tplink_tl-wdr4300.dtsi

Maybe you can get USB LEDs working as USB LEDs with that.

Since you seem to keep track on your devices, I'd also be okay with removing the power_led alias for now, merge the device support, and then address the USB issue in a separate patch.

I've already done rebase (base-files!) etc., so it would be enough if you post your desired changes/decision and I apply them locally.

Note that I've not been granted admin rights in Patchwork yet, so if you have an account there you might update the status of both patches to "Under Review".

Best

Adrian
