Thanks Michael
Replying to this was on my TODO list. We have NACKed patches like this
for a few years now, wanting the Linux LED subsystem be used to
configure PHY LEDs. The patches to implement the core of that
sometimes makes some progress, then goes dormant for a while. The last
effort was getting close to being ready. Maybe the needs for this
driver can help get them finished?
