Subject: [PATCH v2] platform/x86: asus-wmi: use brightness_set_blocking() for kbd led
Date: Sat, 29 Nov 2025 11:13:08 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251129101307.18085-3-anton@khirnov.net> (raw)

kbd_led_set() can sleep, and so may not be used as the brightness_set()
callback.

Otherwise using this led with a trigger leads to system hangs
accompanied by:
