Lee, Rafael,

It seems quite hard to get Pavel's attention to this series [1]. It's already
passed more than 3 weeks for any sign of review of three top patches of the
series that touched LED subsystem. The entire series has all necessary tags,
but for LED changes.

Note, that the top of this series is not done by me and was sent for
preliminary review much earlier [2], altogether it makes months of no response from
the maintainer.

The nature of patches is pretty simple and doesn't touch any of other than Simatic LED
drivers nor LED core. Moreover, it was written by Siemens, who produces the H/W in
question and very well tested as a separate change and as part of the series.

I think to move forward we may ask Rafael to review it on behalf of good maintainer
and with his approval apply entire series.

Thoughts?
