XG mobile stations have very bright leds behind the fan that can be
turned either ON or OFF: add a cled interface to allow controlling the
brightness of those red leds.

Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 2 potential issue(s) to consider:
- [High] The `asus_xgm_led_set` function is incorrectly assigned to the non-blocking `brightness_set` LED callback, but it performs sleeping operations.
- [Medium] The XGM LED class device name is hardcoded, which causes device probe failures due to sysfs naming collisions.

[Severity: Medium]
If multiple XG Mobile docks are connected, or if an ungraceful disconnect
leaves a stale sysfs entry behind, will this hardcoded name cause a sysfs
naming collision? A duplicate name error here would cause
led_classdev_register() to fail and abort the entire HID device probe.
Should this use a dynamic identifier, perhaps incorporating dev_name(),
to ensure uniqueness?

[Severity: High]
Can this cause a sleep-in-atomic bug if the LED is triggered by a software
blink (such as a timer or heartbeat sysfs trigger)?
When software blinking is used, the LED core invokes the brightness_set
callback directly from softirq context. However, asus_xgm_led_set() calls
asus_kbd_set_report(), which performs a GFP_KERNEL allocation and a blocking
USB transaction via hid_hw_raw_request().
Should this callback be assigned to brightness_set_blocking instead,
so the LED core knows to defer the sleeping work to a workqueue?
