Each phy driver needs to call led_classdev_register() for each LED it
has. It then also calls led_trigger_register_to_led() with the
triggers that each LED supports.

They won't have the option. led_trigger_register_to_led() only
registers the trigger to one specific LED, i.e. adds it to the trigger
list in its led_classdev structure, not the global list of triggers.
