Luis Henriques 6d71021ab3 leds: class: ensure workqueue is initialized before setting brightness
An application can try to set brightness before all the initialization is
done, in particular before the workqueue is initialized with the call to
led_init_core().  Here's a WARNING easy to trigger:

This patch initializes and acquires the led_access mutex early in the
of_led_classdev_register function, so that any application trying to write
to sysfs to set brightness will block until initialization ends.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
