outdated documentation for lp5523 LED driver?

Hi!
Documentation says that load/leds are only visible in the load mode,
but that does not seem to be true (kernel 4.4.0 on N900).
# 1) Legacy interface - enginex_mode, enginex_load and enginex_leds
# Control interface for the engines:
# x is 1 .. 3
# enginex_mode : disabled, load, run
# enginex_load : microcode load (visible only in load mode)
# enginex_leds : led mux control (visible only in load mode)

I got both the legacy and the firmware interface to work... but the
firmware interface only seems to work once for me.
How new and old interface are expected to interact with each other is
not clear to me.
What should be done there?
Best regards,
Pavel
