I had thought about that, but I had some concerns that dissuaded me from
perusing it:
- Would need some way to know whether a brightness_set has changed an LED
from on->off or off->on in order to update that counter. leds-core
modifies led_cdev->brightness before calling brightness_set, so that
information would need to be somehow maintained in the driver.
- It requires an additional mutex to protect whatever data is involved in
the previous bullet. That mutex would need to be taken on every brightness
update.
- If a single LED is blinking rapidly (e.g. a cpu trigger), it would thrash
software shutdown mode. That in turn adds even more CPU usage (due to
register writes and mutexes), potentially making power usage worse in
some cases.
- Time it might take to implement and review (mostly depending on how the
first bullet is handled), especially since the 4.6 merge window is fast
approaching.

That said, I could propose the following simple-to-implement design:
- counter, and mutex to protect it, added to 'priv'
- previous_brightness field added to 'led_data'
- brightness_set compares new brightness vs previous
- if on/off state has changed:
- takes mutex
- updates counter
- sets software-shutdown mode to (counter==0)
- releases mutex

If you think that's worth doing, I can try to get it in along with the
other changes for v2.

Agreed. That's a reason I would have for leaving it so even if the
auto-software-shutdown logic is not implemented at this time. But I
would understand if you still prefer to only have the current form
if there is currently code which uses both possible values of the
'enable' parameter.
