Upstream improved Omnia support (primarily leds patch)

We should upstream improved Omnia support patch. The primary component missing is LEDs patch and that won't be accepted most probably never by upstream Linux because it won't fit in to LEDs handling in kernel (RGB leds are handled as three separate leds while in our case they are handled as one led with parameter for color and brightness). Adding patch to OpenWrt upstream with target specific option to enable it could be the way forward.

added Backlog Low Upstream labels

Maybe Multicolor Framework [1] could be answer for proper solution accepted by upstream?
