I don't understand the second sentence. Pretty sure it is not valid
english.
If I make these changes is this still viable for 5.8 or would you
then go
into 5.9?
It really depends if we get -rc8 or not, and if you'll need to do any
changes to C code or not...
I think that we need to simmer such a big extension of the LED
subsystem for a whole cycle in linux-next, especially taking into
account addition of new sysfs interface, that is bit quirky.
Effectively 5.8 seems to not have been viable since few weeks.
After thinking about this for a while I would actually think to have
this in 5.9.
Either 5.7 or 5.8 will be the 2020 LTS and such a new interface would be
best suited for intermediate stable releases that get EOL'd faster.
This way we don't have to back port bug fixes for 2 years.
