Hi Jean, Thank you for the patch. I must say I'm not a big fan of this change. It adds a bunch of code to the LED core and gives small functionality in a reward. It may also influence maximum software blinking rate, so I'd rather avoid calling regulator_enable/disable when timer trigger is set. It will of course require more code. Since AFAIR Pavel was original proponent of this change then I'd like to see his opinion before we move on to discussing possible improvements to this patch.
