The tty LED trigger uses the obsolete LED_ON & LED_OFF constants when
setting LED brightness. This is bad because the LED_ON constant is equal
to 1, and so when activating the tty LED trigger on a LED class device
with max_brightness greater than 1, the LED is dimmer than it can be
(when max_brightness is 255, the LED is very dimm indeed; some devices
translate 1/255 to 0, so the LED is OFF all the time).

Use a mechanism similar to the netdev trigger, wherein on activation
time, the current LED brightness is taken as blinking brightness, and if
it is zero, the max_brightness is taken instead.

PS: We need to get rid of the LED_ON, LED_OFF, LED_FULL and LED_HALF or
    we're bound to repeat this kind of issues.

Ignore this, even better fix coming utilizing led_blink_set_oneshot()
