Just a single LED.

So do I. But because of Mark Brown's suggestions, the mfd children
now have to grab a named sub-node from their parent.
In this case, we grab the parent subnode named 'led' and fetch
the label from it.

Perhaps there is a way to accomplish this this with device_*
calls?

Yes we can, but pdata users would not be able to specify the label name.
Until this patch set, pdata was the only way to use the driver.
Of course, no-one is requesting or requiring this. So I guess
it can be dropped.
