It's not my hardware either, but I can try to create a fake
kbd_keyboard led to test that.

Valid led values are between 0 and max_brightness (like for backlight I think).
I think the led addon should set keyboard_backlight.num_levels to
max_brightness (+1 ?).

On the Asus U50 there is 3 levels (+ off), and keys to change the brightness.
And the user want to use all the backlight levels with the Fn+F3/F4 keys.
