Sorry for last minute review comments.

First of all, can it be just boolean?

Naming... Yes, too hard as always was, is and will be.

What about just

kbd_led_use_levels?

Also, does it make sense to create a quirks as an unsigned long and
put there corresponding bits with definitions?

/* Comment what is this for */
#define QUIRK_KBD_LED_USE_LEVELS 0

unsigned long quirks;

?

With last suggestion if becomes something like

if (quirks & BIT(QUIRK_KBD_LED_USE_LEVELS) && info->levels)
