leds/leds-pca9532.c: sleeping function called in .brightness_set()

[Guennadi Liakhovetski]

Hi,

this seems to explicitly violate the API as documented in 
include/linux/leds.h:

	/* Set LED brightness level */
	/* Must not sleep, use a workqueue if needed */
	void		(*brightness_set)(struct led_classdev *led_cdev,
					  enum led_brightness brightness);

and also contradicts some other drivers, e.g., pca955x, which do use a 
workqueue as suggested: leds-pca9532.c::pca9532_set_brightness uses a 
mutex for locking and calls i2c_smbus functions directly. Needs to be 
fixed (if it hasn't been fixed yet), probably, also vor 2.6.27-stable.

Thanks
Guennadi
