Hmm...  I think there's a whole lot more broken.  Let's start with the
Makefile:

-obj-y				+= leds-sead3.o sead3-leds.o

Very creative filenames.  No way to know in what way foo-bar and bar-foo
are different.  But let's take a look at sead3-leds:

[...]
module_init(led_init);

MODULE_AUTHOR("Chris Dearman <chris@xxxxxxxx>");
MODULE_LICENSE("GPL");
MODULE_DESCRIPTION("LED probe driver for SEAD-3");

But although you were trying to make this a module, this better shouldn't
be one, the devices should always be registered if they're there, driver
enabled or not.

Anyway this should probably become a device_initcall() and all the
module bits should go.

And now let's take a look at sead3-led..  oh wait, that's leds-sead3 -
did I bitch about the filename before?  That's a complete device driver
and it blows up primarily because it lives in a directory where it
shouldn't be at all.
