Trigger indicates "none" but it keeps blinking, until I echo 0 >
brightness to stop it. I have python script to trigger this
behaviour... it seems to work from shell.

It behaves strangely. If I ask for blinking twice, it stops blinking
on second request.

echoing none fixes it.

Kernel 5.1.0-rc1 + some unrelated bits.

Maybe this is manifestation of the possible problem we still
have in the LED core.

I once proposed a patch [0]. You could try if it changes
something in your case.
