| 30 | Last hardware set brightness level for this LED. Some LEDs |
| 31 | may be changed autonomously by hardware/firmware. Only LEDs |
| 32 | where this happens and the driver can detect this, will have |
| 33 | this file. |
| 34 | |
| 35 | This file supports poll() to detect when the hardware changes |
| 36 | the brightness. |
| 37 | |
| 38 | Reading this file will return the last brightness level set |
| 39 | by the hardware, this may be different from the current |
| 40 | brightness. Reading this file when no hw brightness change |
| 41 | event has happened will return an ENODATA error. |
