Ah, right. Forget it.

brightness_set* op returned 0?

It does modify it on every brightness setting op in
led_set_brightness_nosleep().

If write to the device fails it signifies much more serious problem
than resulting mismatched values. Have you experienced that?

It was because in your code values are assigned in a loop that
may or may not execute at all, depending on num_leds.
In my example variables will be assigned unconditionally
so there should be no compiler complaints.
