Hello,

Problem arises on one of our boards where we have 14 triples of leds(each
triple contains R G B). Test case is to play complex animation on all leds:
smooth switch from on RGB state to another. Sometimes there are glitches in
this process - divergence from expectable RGB state. We fixed this by using
ordered workqueue.

Thanks, Arseniy
