[PATCH v3 13/13] realtek: add target TODO.md

To keep track of current work items, add a TODO file inspired by
upstream code that is still in driver/staging. This should provide room
for developers to leave issues open, or features unsupported, and give
new contributors a list of topics that still require attention.

+# Realtek switch support to do list
+
+This file intends to keep track of known issues and shortcomings with current
+downstream OpenWrt driver. These drivers are of insufficient quality, or the
+knowledge of the hardware they control has too many gaps, to allow for these
+drivers to be submitted upstream.
+
+The action items are sorted per driver/peripheral, roughly ordered by
+importance. Every driver should have a listed developer or contact, usually the
+original driver author.

+* Changing the HW offloading state will affect both the primary and secondary
+  LEDs of a port. This is currently not propagated, leaving the sibbling LED
+  with an incorrect trigger value.
+* Reading the LED brightness will always return the user-controlled brightness
+  setting. When HW offloading is active, this value may be incorrect.
