Actually, I would hit the same problem (late visual feedback) with a splash screen: we would need to wait for u-boot to be fully loaded, which takes too much time. (plus, the DE2 video driver only supports HDMI out for now, and I don't have the skills to add MIPI-DSI support) Having the status LED set up in the SPL allows almost-instant visual feedback, which is what I'm looking for here.

For some systems, such as the PinePhone, there is no way for the end user to make sure the system is indeed booting before the boot script is executed, which takes several seconds. Therefore, it can be useful to provide early visual feedback as soon as possible. In order achieve this goal, this patch initializes the status LED (if configured) in the SPL.
