Yep, sorry.

I see... and yes, that would be the easiest solution.

But somehow I see "this LED is controlled by charging state" as
primary and "it shows pulses instead of staying on" as secondary
eye-candy.

This week there was another driver for charger LED.. but that one does
not do pulses. Ideally, we'd like consistent interface to the
userland.

(To make it complex, the other driver supports things like:
  LED solid on -- fully charged
  LED blinking slowly -- charging
  LED blinking fast -- charge error
  LED off -- not charging).

Best regards,
