The BeagleBone Black (and in general all the embedded arm boards) have
different leds that an user can configure to show different aspects of a
system: cpu load, disk activity, status, etcetc.
One of the most common task assigned to a led is to show that the board is still alive
by lighting on and off rhitmically, following an heartbeat pattern.
User can assign such a task to any configurable led via a device tree, but if
the requested code is not available once the kernel boots, the
led is silently turned off and people might think, in case of a headless system, that
a panic has happened or that the system has grinded.
To avoid this situation, and to let people use the heartbeat led trigger right
after boot, make the code built-in, and to avoid this situation in
the future, enforce it.
