Why?  Is there any written policy for the LED behavior?  I think we want
to conserve power if sleeping, which means turning LEDs off.

Or is it a workaround for some quirk in Atheros hardware?

In any case, I don't like the new comment.  The comment says "Keep the
LED on...", but the code is still turning the LED off.
