led_blink_set[_oneshot]()'s delay_on and delay_off function parameters are pass by reference, so that hw-blink implementations can report back the actual achieved delays when the values have been rounded to something the hw supports. This is really only interesting for the sysfs API / the timer trigger. Other triggers don't really care about this and none of the callers of led_trigger_blink[_oneshot]() do anything with the returned delay values. Change the led_trigger_blink[_oneshot]() delay parameters to pass-by-value, there are 2 reasons for this: 1. led_cdev->blink_set() may sleep, while led_trigger_blink() may not. So on hw where led_cdev->blink_set() sleeps the call needs to be deferred to a workqueue, in which case the actual achieved delays are unknown (this is a preparation patch for the deferring). 2. Since the callers don't care about the actual achieved delays, allowing callers to directly pass a value leads to simpler code for most callers.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
