LLS: when turning off all LEDs on boot, skip LED-C
Having LLS turn off LED-A and LED-B on boot is normally unnecessary
(they should already be off in Iota), but it is harmless, hence this
logic is kept for robustness. However, having LLS read-modify-write
the BCICTL2 register (to turn off LED-C) creates a potential race
condition with FCHG writes to this register, especially in the case
when baseband switch-on is caused by VCHG and charging is expected
to start right away. Furthermore, control of the charging LED itself
(on those hw targets that have it) is the responsibility of the FCHG
SWE, hence LLS should leave it alone.

FC Tourmaline stdmodem functional configuration is equivalent to Magnetite hybrid. The only intentional diff from Magnetite to Tourmaline in the modem configuration is the change of Nucleus: Magnetite uses the blob version of Nucleus which came with TCS211-20070608, whereas Tourmaline uses the source version of Nucleus by Comrade XVilka. It is essentially a change from an unknown version of Nucleus to a known one, thus it should generally be considered an improvement - but as always with such changes, extensive verification and testing needs to be done in order to ensure that nothing got broken. Aside from the one intentional change of Nucleus version, FC Tourmaline is an entirely new firmware source tree, thus it is always possible that something could have got broken unintentionally, particularly in rarely-tested areas of the firmware. Therefore, extensive testing will need to be done before we can declare Tourmaline stdmodem as officially replacing Magnetite hybrid for stable modem products.
