+Brightness setting API
+======================
+
+LED subsystem core exposes following API for setting brightness:
+
+ - led_set_brightness : it is guaranteed not to sleep, passing LED_OFF stops
+ blinking,
+ - led_set_brightness_sync : for use cases when immediate effect is desired -
+ it can block the caller for the time required for accessing
+ device registers and can sleep, passing LED_OFF stops hardware
+ blinking, returns -EBUSY if software blink fallback is enabled.
