When I said standard I meant HID, not the input subsystem. I totally
understand wanting to create a better separation of responsibilities
internally.

Sure, but in this case we really care that they're part of the same
physical package. We're lighting up the LED for the first player's
input device, so we *need* this ability to correlate.

LEDs also don't appear to have any uapi headers. Is the sysfs entry
considered stable API? Are we supposed to classify what they're for
(e.g. PLAYER_1 vs. PLAYER_2) by their name?
