I also thought about this, but CONFIG_DELL_WMI_LED is only needed to
support the Dell Activity LED (present in the Dell Latitude 2100
netbook). Meanwhile, Alex is only testing the microphone mute LED,
which requires CONFIG_DELL_LAPTOP to be enabled. The cover letter for
this patch series provides a more thorough explanation.
