Description
-----------

LP5521 can drive up to 3 channels. Leds can be controlled directly via
the led class control interface. Channels have generic names:
lp5521:channelx, where x is 0 .. 2

All three channels can be also controlled using the engine micro programs.
More details of the instructions can be found from the public data sheet.

LP5521 has the internal program memory for running various LED patterns.
For the details, please refer to 'firmware' section in leds-lp55xx.txt

sysfs contains a selftest entry.
The test communicates with the chip and checks that
the clock mode is automatically set to the requested one.

Each channel has its own led current settings.
/sys/class/leds/lp5521:channel0/led_current - RW
/sys/class/leds/lp5521:channel0/max_current - RO
Format: 10x mA i.e 10 means 1.0 mA

example platform data:

Note: chan_nr can have values between 0 and 2.
The name of each channel can be configurable.
If the name field is not defined, the default name will be set to 'xxxx:channelN'
(XXXX : pdata->label or i2c client name, N : channel number)

static struct lp55xx_led_config lp5521_led_config[] = {
        {

        .release_resources = lp5521_release,
        .enable            = lp5521_enable,
};

If the current is set to 0 in the platform data, that channel is
disabled and it is not visible in the sysfs.

The 'update_config' : CONFIG register (ADDR 08h)
This value is platform-specific data.
If update_config is not defined, the CONFIG register is set with
'LP5521_PWRSAVE_EN | LP5521_CP_MODE_AUTO | LP5521_R_TO_BATT'.
(Enable auto-powersave, set charge pump to auto, red to battery)

example of update_config :

#define LP5521_CONFIGS	(LP5521_PWM_HF | LP5521_PWRSAVE_EN | \
			LP5521_CP_MODE_AUTO | LP5521_R_TO_BATT | \
			LP5521_CLK_INT)

static struct lp55xx_platform_data lp5521_pdata = {
	.led_config = lp5521_led_config,
	.num_channels = ARRAY_SIZE(lp5521_led_config),
	.clock_mode = LP55XX_CLOCK_INT,
	.update_config = LP5521_CONFIGS,
};
