Sure.
I guess the 'disabled' status was put as a micro-optimization to avoid
probing the 'pwm-leds' driver on boards that don't have any such LEDs. In
practical terms it shouldn't really make a difference in terms of memory
or CPU.
Hi,

Just to be clear, I was suggesting leaving the "disabled" at the
pwm-leds level but removing the one at the "keyboard_backlight" level.
I don't expect us to have any pwm_leds on herobrine devices that
aren't for the keyboard backlight. If/when we do we can always add the
two-levels of disabled back in...
