Yes, there is a callback, that's the "done" function, but you can also poll/check on request->complete though in this case, polling is not recommended, the LED stuff should be as low latency as possible.I suppose then what I'll do is request a done callback, and when an LED update comes in while not done, just save it into a new 'next state should be' variable, which is compared when done so that at worst I loose events, but not the final status. Can I use pmu_request from within the done callback with the same structure? Probably not a good idea right? I can schedule_work then.
No need to schedule work, it should work fine to re-queue Ben.
