SubjectRe: [PATCH] leds-bcm6328: Reuse bcm6328_led_set() instead of copying its functionality

BCM6328_LED_MODE_ON and BCM6328_LED_MODE_OFF should represent the values
that actually set the LED state according to the current logic.
Otherwise it will confuse people who will be analyzing this code.
We are interested in the logic as it is seen from this driver's
perspective and not GPIO perspective.

IMO the values should be swapped.

Best Regards,
Jacek Anaszewski
