If LEDs are configured through device tree and the property 'label' is
omitted, the label is supposed to be generated from the properties
'function' and 'color' if present. While this works fine for e.g. the
'leds-gpio' driver, it did not for 'leds-pwm'.

The reason is, you get this label naming magic only if you add a LED
device through 'devm_led_classdev_register_ext()' and pass a pointer to
the current device tree node. The approach to fix this was adopted from
the 'leds-gpio' driver.

For the following node from dts the LED appeared as 'led5' in sysfs
before and as 'red:debug' after this change.

pwm_leds {
compatible = "pwm-leds";

led5 {
function = LED_FUNCTION_DEBUG;
color = <LED_COLOR_ID_RED>;
pwms = <&pwm0 2 10000000 0>;
max-brightness = <127>;

linux,default-trigger = "heartbeat";
panic-indicator;
};
};

Notes:
v1: based on v5.9-rc2, backport on v5.4.59 also works

This part looks good, but corresponding update of
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/leds/leds-pwm.txt is needed as well.
It would be good to switch to yaml by this occassion.
