You mean just the #include right? Ack to that.

At first I tried to put the led_get() inside v4l2_async_register_subdev_sensor(),
which could then return an error like -EPROBE_DEFER if the led_get()
fails (and nicely limits the led_get() to sensors).

The problem which I hit is that v4l2-fwnode.c is build according to
CONFIG_V4L2_FWNODE where as v4l2-subdev.c is build according to
CONFIG_VIDEO_DEV 

And e.g. CONFIG_VIDEO_DEV could be builtin while CONFIG_V4L2_FWNODE
could be a module and then having the #if IS_REACHABLE(CONFIG_LEDS_CLASS)
spread over the 2 could result in different answers in the different
files ...

One solution here could be to change CONFIG_V4L2_FWNODE and V4L2_ASYNC
to bools and link the (quite small) objects for these 2 into videodev.ko:

videodev-$(CONFIG_V4L2_FWNODE) += v4l2-fwnode.o
videodev-$(CONFIG_V4L2_ASYNC) += v4l2-async.o

Hmm, I thought this was a good compromise, this way the LED
can be used for other purposes when the sensor is off if users
want to.

Right if users want to use a trigger then they would need
to re-attach the trigger after using the camera.

But this way at least they can use the LED for other purposes
which since many users don't use their webcam that often
might be interesting for some users ...

And this is consistent with how flash LEDs are handled.

If we decide to permanently disallow userspace access then
yes this is an option. Or maybe better (to keep the LED
drivers generic), do the disable directly after the led_get() ?

Ack.
