Right, and the patch you reference explains why. At no point was support
for LEDs removed.

The intention and supported LED behavior has always been for a single
LED to blink according to data. The led_mode module parameter was added
to support the additional RF status indication capability. 

If you want to be able to manipulate the LED in other ways than the
driver supports you could look into adding a debugfs file that
manipulates the driver's led variables (allow_blinking,
last_blink_time, ...). There is already a readable led file in debugfs,
but not writable.
