Player LEDs are commonly found on game controllers from Nintendo and Sony to indicate a player ID across a number of LEDs. For example, "Player 2" might be indicated as "-x--" on a device with 4 LEDs where "x" means on. This patch introduces LED_FUNCTION_PLAYER1-5 defines to properly indicate player LEDs from the kernel. Until now there was no good standard, which resulted in inconsistent behavior across xpad, hid-sony, hid-wiimote and other drivers. Moving forward new drivers should use LED_FUNCTION_PLAYERx. Note: management of Player IDs is left to user space, though a kernel driver may pick a default value.

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.
