On this generation, EC register
0xd3is only a status mirror. Writes updatethe register but do not change the physical keyboard. The keyboard lighting is
controlled by a dedicated USB HID device.
The MS-1606 does not provide a separate brightness command or useful RGB
readback. The driver therefore scales a configurable fixed RGB color in the
steady-effect packet. The default
255:50:0color can be changed with thecolor_red,color_green, andcolor_bluemodule parameters.Validation
