Hi!

This has two problems: ":" already has special meaning in LED name,
and we'd prefer not to have new "states" interface unless absolutely
neccessary.

So what does this do? Turns the LED on if driver is in "ok" or
"locate" states?

This goes against "one value per file", really needs better
description, and probably needs different interface.

Thank you!
