leds: implement sysfs interface locking mechanism
Add a mechanism for locking LED subsystem sysfs interface. This patch prepares ground for addition of LED Flash Class extension, whose API will be integrated with V4L2 Flash API. Such a fusion enforces introducing a locking scheme, which will secure consistent access to the LED Flash Class device. The mechanism being introduced allows for disabling LED subsystem sysfs interface by calling led_sysfs_disable function and enabling it by calling led_sysfs_enable. The functions alter the LED_SYSFS_DISABLE flag state and must be called under mutex lock. The state of the lock is checked with use of led_sysfs_is_disabled function. Such a design allows for providing immediate feedback to the user space on whether the LED Flash Class device is available or is under V4L2 Flash sub-device control.
