Currently the led device name is fetched from the device_type in
I2C_BOARD_INFO which comes from the platform data. This name is in turn
used to create an entry in sysfs.

If there exists two or more lp5521 on a particular platform, the
device_type in I2C_BOARD_INFO has to be the same, else lp5521 driver
probe wont be called and if used so, results in run time warning "cannot
create sysfs with same name" and hence a failure.

The name that is used to create sysfs entry is to be passed by the
struct led_platform_data. Hence adding an element of type const char *
and change in lp5521 driver to use this name in creating the led device
if present else use the name obtained by I2C_BOARD_INFO.
