I will add a newline here.

Regarding the labels: The backlight label could be used like the
following. I use it like this in my tests with the tilcdc panel driver
which has a backlight support.

panel {
backlight = <&tps_bl>;

panel-info {
ac-bias = <255>;
ac-bias-intrpt = <0>;
dma-burst-sz = <16>;
bpp = <32>;
fdd = <0x80>;
sync-edge = <0>;
sync-ctrl = <1>;
.
.
.

I'm not sure if there could be actual use for the pmic label, but I
thought if I add a label to backlight, I have to add one to the pmic
too to keep it similar.
