GPIO LEDs only know 2 states: ON or OFF and do not have PWM capabilities.
However, the max brightness is reported as 255.

This patch sets the max brightness value of a GPIO controlled LED to 1.

Tested on my PinePhone 1.2.

v2 drops an obsolete change in include/linux/leds.h
v3 simplifies the patch for better readability

I believe I have applied this already.

Thanks for patches,
