My first submission to a linux-kernel list, so apologies for any errors.

In OpenWrt one core kernel image is built for a particular subtarget,
after which it's only modules that can be excluded from an rootfs image to
reduce the space consumed.  Unfortunately leds-syscon currently doesn't
seem to allow for being compiled as a module where it could be excluded
from an image. In my testing, it seemed relatively straight forward to
enable this however.
I wouldn't anticipate issues for other systems, as they would still be
able to request CONFIG_LEDS_SYSCON=y to get the current behaviour,
identical to how they currently operate.

Sorry all, please ignore this patch.
I'll review, and send a V2 once I sort out some of the issues here.
