 The led GPIOs will be active-high, while the power GPIO will be active-low (i.e.
 gpiod_is_active_low(power) will be true).
 
+The second parameter of the gpiod_get() functions, the con_id string, has to be
+the <function>-prefix of the GPIO suffixes ("gpios" or "gpio", automatically

+"led-gpios" example, use the prefix without the "-" as con_id parameter: "led".

+Internally, the GPIO subsystem prefixes the GPIO suffix ("gpios" or "gpio")
+with the string passed in con_id to get the resulting string
+(snprintf(... "%s-%s", con_id, gpio_suffixes[]).
