Sorry for the late response.

There is a special mechanism to report that the HW changed the
brightness. This works using the "brightness_hw_changed" sysfs
attribute. So you will need to set the LED_BRIGHT_HW_CHANGED flag on
the LED and then call led_classdev_notify_brightness_hw_changed to make
it work.

Userspace should correctly show the OSD when this is done.
