Will do so.

__le16 is the in-kernel return type for cpu_to_le16(), but after further
review I believe I don't need to do this.

Yes, it is, but it keep lpg_apply() tidy.

Yes, I believe we need to do this.
Because each piece of hardware has N channels, which can be wired to
LEDs, grouped with other channels and wired to multicolor LEDs or be
used as PWM signals. And this configuration is board specific.
One such example is the laptop in front of me, which has 3 channels
wired to an RGB LED and 1 channel wired as a backlight control signal
(i.e. using pwm-backlight). Another example is a devboard where the
4 channels are wired to 4 LEDs.
