Subject: leds: lp5523: fix circular locking
From: Samu Onkalo <samu.p.onkalo@xxxxxxxxx>
Driver contained possibility for circular locking.
One lock is held by sysfs-core and another one by the driver itself.
This happened when the driver created or removed sysfs entries dynamically.
There is no real need to do those operations. Now all the sysfs entries
are created at probe and removed at removal. Engine load and mux configuration
sysfs entries are now visible all the time. However, access to the entries
fails if the engine is disabled or running.
