Apologies, that didn't age well, I should have looked at the file history.
It looks like the module=>builtin was done before, so this change reverts
that.

It also adds MODULE_DESCRIPTION and MODULE_LICENSE along with the tristate
Kconfig.

In OpenWrt, this allows leds-syscon to be .config'd as a module in 
subtargets, and then included / excluded from rootfs filesystems as 
required for specific boards.  Without this, every board would need to have
leds-syscon compiled as builtin just to provide it for one specific board.
And OpenWrt devices are often space-constrained, where this is a
significant concern.

This reverts commit f7d98a65d031 ("leds: syscon: Make the driver
explicitly non-modular").

OpenWrt builds with a single .config for a given subtarget, whilst boards
below that subtarget may not want to carry the disk usage of all options.
So there is a preference to have all functionality not required on all
boards as modules that can simply not be included in a given board rootfs
to reduce disk usage.

Additional changes:
- (int)(struct platform_device *pdev) => void return
- Add MODULE_DESCRIPTION and MODULE_LICENSE macros
- Add tristate option to Kconfig
