I'm pretty sure it's OK to have the LED driver in the kernel.  Any LEDs
driven by the hal_bb_gpio module can have their trigger disabled.

I'll try this out in a day or two when I'm back home.  I have had
several people think the system was broken because the LEDs were not
blinking...I'm guessing not very many people monitor the serial console
of their BeagleBone.  :-/
