I don't understand this part.  What's the point of enabling software LEDs
if nothing triggers them?

Also, we can probably build hardware LEDs (hw_set_ledstate) in regardless.
It's a pure register write and doesn't require the rest of the LED machinery.

I assume you are doing this to reduce the size of the module.  If so, can
you include size(1) output in the commit message?
