Clearly this is not how we want the heartbeat trigger to
work: it should turn off and leave the LED off during
system suspend.
Agree!
This removes the heartbeat trigger when preparing suspend and
restores it during resume. The trigger code will make sure all
LEDs are left in OFF state after removing the trigger, and
will re-enable the trigger on all LEDs after resuming.
I believe most other led-trigger types that should also be "suspended"
in the similar fashion as the heartbeat. Perhaps not all, but least
some more (timer, cpu, etc).
I looked at the cpu trigger, which currently registers a syscore_ops
to deal with suspend/resume. That means the trigger being suspended
far later in system PM suspend phase, and I wonder if that is really
necessary!?
Does people really care about the cpu trigger being active that late
in the system PM suspend phase!?
More importantly, I think it could be problematic to allow it that
late in system PM phase, at least for for those ARM SoC I have been
working on which might use an i2c transfer to control the led.
Okay, my point is, perhaps we should do this in a more generic manner
and manage the suspend/resume of triggers in
drivers/leds/led-triggers.c?
We'd have to consider it in connection with pm_ops in led-class.c, which
set brightness to LED_OFF on suspend and set it back to the previous
value on resume. Setting brightness to LED_OFF results also in disabling
blinking. In case of drivers that implement blink_set op this results
in disabling hardware blinking, but it is not reactivated upon resume,
where only brightness_set{_blocking} op is called.
If we need the suspend/resume trigger to be optional, we can add that
as a configuration flag in struct led_trigger, to inform the
led-triggers.c about the wanted behaviour. In that way, each
led-trigger type don't have to register their own set of pm_notifiers.

Besides my upper comments, this looks like a good approach!
Kind regards
