In v2 of this series, the correct init order was ensured by
running leds_init() at "arch" initcall level, instead of "subsys":

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pci/20240528131940.16924-2-mariusz.tkaczyk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/

If you prefer this alternative approach, then Bjorn or Krzysztof
can probably replace the commit on the pci.git/npem branch.

AFAIK, all topic branches in pci.git are to be considered drafts
that can be amended until the pull request is sent.

Thanks,

Lukas
