Add attributes neccessary for LED flashes to
devicetree/bindings/leds/common.txt .

This will allow me to add device tree support for adp1653 i2c flash
LED driver, and allow Jacek Anaszewski to add support for more LED
drivers..

Actually, we've agreed with Sakari that we can handle
indicator-pattern later.
Good.

I would remove references to you, me and adp1653 driver from the commit
message and mention that this modifications adjust the led common
bindings to the LED Flash class that is to be added.
Ok, who can take this patch? Can you edit the changelog, or should I
do it? Anything else that needs changing?
It's your patch :) For me the contents of the patch are ok.
It requires device tree maintainer approval anyway.
Yeah, I was hoping relevant maintainers would speak up. I was not
asking you to edit the changelog, sorry I was unclear.

Bryan Wu, Richard Purdie: You are the maintainers. Can you take the
patch?
I'm OK for this patch, but since Jacek and Sakari are working on
pushing LED Flash class and driver into our LED subsystem. I need you
guys' Ack for this. Then I can take it in my tree.
Jacek acked it (provided I modify changelog).

I can't get Sakari to get explicit ACK, but he was cc-ed on the
discussion, and was ok with the idea. That should be enough...?
My apologies for missing this one --- I've gotten too much mail lately. :-P

Acked-by: Sakari Ailus <sakari.ailus@linux.intel.com>

The flash timeout is really a very coarse way to avoid overheating the flash
(controller or LED) but it's still what is often used in practice. This
doesn't prevent strobing the flash right after the previous strobe has
stopped, but is definitely better than nothing; this at least prevents
accidental overheating of the components.
