Connecting USB HID with LEDs

Installing and Using OpenWrt

Could somebody explain why connecting USB HID with LEDs (for example keyboard) to the LEDE board doesn't create LED files in /sys/class/leds/ ?

On my Ubuntu 16.04 desktop I see the same dmesg output and NumLock, CapsLock and etc. LEDs appear in /sys/class/leds/.

ls /sys/class/leds/
input5::capslock  input5::numlock  input5::scrolllock

OK, if somebody is interested, I've found the solution. There is an option "Export input device LEDs in sysfs" in kernel config. It was disabled by default. I just has to enable it using "make kernel_menuconfig". That works the same way as on my desktop now.
