OK, thanks for the explanation. I'll consider this when preparing v3 of the
patch series.

As far as I can see it doesn't. In monochrome mode
led_validate_brightness(led_cdev, LED_FULL) evaluates to
led_cdev->max_brightness.

That's exactly what I had in mind when saying "thought about moving
this check to another place".
