SubjectRe: [PATCHv5 2/2] INPUT: Introduce generic trigger/LED pairs to input LEDs

I don't really mind.

Ok.

Just because it didn't exist when I wrote the code :)
Ok.

Ah, right, that was making things simpler, but it could be
squeezed. I'm just afraid of one thing: may dev->ledbit change after
input_register_device? It seems that at least uinput somehow permits
this. It then means having to store the number of actually created LEDs
and triggers alongside.

No, that won't work, notably for evdev access: we have to respect the
per-device semantic.

Right.
