Ok, this is somehow unusual/crazy. Single driver with two interfaces.

Do we need the LED interface for something?

If yes, I believe reasonable solution would be to always provide LED
interface, and then have "backlight-trigger" which that would provide
backlight interface for arbitrary LED.

Thanks,
