For the PWM driver the power_supply and enable_gpio are part of managing
a dumb LED driver device that is downstream of the PWM.

What is their purpose when we wrap an LED device? Put another why why isn't
the LED device driver responsible for this?

Is there any reason that this function cannot use the (more generic)
device property API throughout this function?
