Where did these two reviews happen?
They were in-house reviews.  Please feel free to remove them from the
patch.

Where is any user of this?
We are adding Kernel control of PoE LEDs and thought this might be
useful to others, maybe those working on netdev, or anyone implementing
PoE on their devices.  Also, the Kernel >> Docs >> LEDs page states:
"If required color or function is missing, please submit a patch to
linux-leds@vger.kernel.org", which is included here.
You did not answer: where is the user? By "we are adding" you mean
downstream?
It's downstream. One of our PoE switches in development which uses a 
pca9552 LED controller. I suggested to Tony that we get this upstream as 
I know there is some work going on to support PoE PSEs in netdev. I did 
wonder if we wanted to make this more specific i.e. have "pse" and "pd" 
as different functions but something like "poe" seemed fine as you're 
not going to have something that is both a PSE and a PD on the same port.
