This looks much cleaner IMO, thanks.

OK, I forgot to comment on this one :-)

A name should be descriptive, but that's just too much. So let's use
something
shorter, and add a comment if one is really needed to explain what it
is.
Something like:

u8 kbd_led_reports_num_levels is shorter, but still awfully long.

u8 kbd_led_num_levels is shorter, but obviously looks like it should be
the
levels value instead of a bool. So the above is probably best.

I will be happy to test out whichever patch(es) present the most
appropriate approach, as a matter of consensus.

Would that be the PATCH v2
(https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10015149/) that I should be testing?

thanks,
