Hi!

+static ssize_t uleds_read(struct file *file, char __user *buffer,
size_t count,
+ loff_t *ppos)
+{
+ struct uleds_device *udev = file->private_data;
+ ssize_t retval;
+
+ if (count == 0)
+ return 0;
+
+ if (count != 1)
+ return -EINVAL;

This is quite anti-social. You are free to return 1 byte on any read
(short read), but please allow reads with bigger buffers.

Thanks,
Pavel
