[RFC PATCH 2/5] dt-bindings: an30259a: example for using fixed LED node names.

From: Matti Vaittinen
Date: Tue Oct 29 2019 - 08:47:38 EST


Use predefined LED node name to match the LED node in driver.

It would be nice to offload common LED property parsing to
LED core driver. One of the key things to allow this is somehow
'pair' the LED DT node with LED driver initialization data.

This patch uses LED node name as a 'key' in a same fashion
as regulators do. The an30259a was selected as demonstration
example and this change may not be really feasible for an30259a
as I have no idea whether the existing DTs for devices out there
have specific node names (or can be changed). This servers just
as an example to initiate discussion as to how we could pair the
driver data and DT node.
