Introduce the bindings for the Texas Instruments LP5024 and the LP5018
RGB LED device driver. The LP5024/18 can control RGB LEDs individually
or as part of a control bank group. These devices have the ability
to adjust the mixing control for the RGB LEDs to obtain different colors
independent of the overall brightness of the LED grouping.

+* Texas Instruments - LP5024/18 RGB LED driver
+
+The LM3692x is an ultra-compact, highly efficient,
+white-LED driver designed for LCD display backlighting.
+
+The main difference between the LP5024 and L5018 is the number of
+RGB LEDs they support. The LP5024 supports twenty four strings while the
+LP5018 supports eighteen strings.
+
+Required properties:
+ - compatible:
+ "ti,lp5018"
+ "ti,lp5024"
+ - reg : I2C slave address
+ - #address-cells : 1
+ - #size-cells : 0
+
+Optional properties:
+ - enable-gpios : gpio pin to enable/disable the device.
+ - vled-supply : LED supply
+
+Required child properties:
+ - reg : Is the child node iteration.
+ - led-sources : LP5024 - 0 - 7
+ LP5018 - 0 - 5
+ Declares the LED string or strings that the child node
+ will control. If ti,control-bank is set then this
+ property will contain multiple LED IDs.
+
+Optional child properties:
+ - label : see Documentation/devicetree/bindings/leds/common.txt
+ - linux,default-trigger :
+ see Documentation/devicetree/bindings/leds/common.txt
+ - ti,control-bank : Indicates that the LED strings declared in the
+ led-sources property are grouped within a control
+ bank for brightness and mixing control.
+
+Example:
+
+led-controller@28 {
+ compatible = "ti,lp5024";
+ reg = <0x28>;
+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <0>;
+
+ enable-gpios = <&gpio1 28 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
+ vled-supply = <&vbatt>;
+
+ led@0 {
+ reg = <0>;
+ led-sources = <1>;
+ };
+
+ led@1 {
+ reg = <1>;
+ led-sources = <0 6>;
+ ti,control-bank;

Do you really need ti,control-bank? Doesn't led-sources array size
greater than 1 mean that the node describes control bank?

Also, does it make sense to have only two LEDs in the bank?
