+Kernel driver for lp5523
+========================
+
+* National Semiconductor LP5523 led driver chip

+Description
+-----------
+LP5523 can drive up to 9 channels. Leds can be controlled directly via
+the led class control interface. Channels have generic names:
+lp5523:channelx where x is 0...8
+
+The chip provides 3 engines. Each engine can control channels without
+interaction from the main CPU. Details of the micro engine code can be found
+from the public data sheet. Leds can be muxed to different channels.
+
+Control interface for the engines:
+x is 1 .. 3
+enginex_mode : disabled, load, run
+enginex_load : microcode load (visible only in load mode)
+enginex_leds : led mux control (visible only in load mode)
+
+cd /sys/class/leds/lp5523:channel2/device
+echo "load" > engine3_mode
+echo "9d80400004ff05ff437f0000" > engine3_load
+echo "111111111" > engine3_leds
+echo "run" > engine3_mode
+
+sysfs contains a selftest entry. It measures each channel
+voltage level and checks if it looks reasonable. If the level is too high,
+the led is missing; if the level is too low, there is a short circuit.
+
+Selftest uses always the current from the platform data.
+
+Each channel contains led current settings.
+/sys/class/leds/lp5523:channel2/led_current - RW
+/sys/class/leds/lp5523:channel2/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 8.
