Hi all, I have added support for controlling the (way too bright) XG mobile LEDs in hid-asus and added the i2c version of already supported hardware that was probed only when it's a USB: these are two separate features changes and are the only two that are not fixes for pre-existing issue (see below). Auto-review bot has spotted a bunch of pre-existing problems alongside problems in my own code therefore at this point I am going to fix the more problems I can and including those fixes and improvements in this patchset. For v4 I decided to follow Antheas' suggestion of reusing the existing workqueue and by making it more generic I solved a good bunch of issues. The v5 iteration is simply me fixing a bunch of bugs in new code spotted by the bot. Thanks for providing such a useful tool! On a side node this patchset has a few more warnings: specifically "WARNING: Prefer kzalloc_obj over kzalloc with sizeof" but it's a false positive as that would introduce sleeping calls in atomic contexts.
