Why are you declaring the led variable as const? This is not needed.
Sure, you do not change it, but I have never seen this being used in
this way in kernel.

Again, yes, you do not change part0, read_ios or write_ios in this
function, but this does not mean you need to declare them const.
Const is good when you want to declare that a place where a pointer
points to should be constant. You don't need to do it for the pointer
itself, I don't see any benefit from this.

It would be better to simply do the comparison where it is needed,
since it is so short. These functions aren't needed, they do not
shorten code in any significant way, nor do they make it more readable
(in fact, they make it a little less readable).

You are again using const where it is not needed.
In fact the work_func_t type does not have it:
typedef void (*work_func_t)(struct work_struct *work);

These two blinks should be one blink, i.e.
if ((read_act && read_mode) || (write_act && write_mode))
blink();
