Also fix Documentation/led-class.txt, the acceptable
range of values for brightness is 0-max_brightness, not 0-255.

In its simplest form, the LED class just allows control of LEDs from

The class also introduces the optional concept of an LED trigger. A trigger
is a kernel based source of led events. Triggers can either be simple or
