I did it at first, but the led API executes in atomic context, where the
pwm-twl-led driver uses i2c communication. Setting a trigger will result in a
kernel panic.

Now that you mentioned it, this might be true.

I am working on a patch for pwm-twl-led to defer using a workqueue right now.

Great!
The only thing I worry about is the latency we are going to get with the
workqueue.


If the latency becomes critical, we can create our own workqueue.

Do we merge anyway this patchset, or do we wait until the trigger has been fixed?
