Please, lets fix this properly.

The LED you are talking about _has_ a trigger, implemented in
hardware. That trigger can change LED brightness behind kernel's (and
userspace's) back. Don't pretend the trigger does not exist, it does.

And when you do that, you'll have nice place to report changes to
userspace -- trigger can now export that information, and offer poll()
interface.

Thanks,
