Are specific ethernet controllers allowed to add their own properties in 
led nodes? If so, this doesn't work. As-is, this allows any other 
properties. You need 'unevaluatedProperties: false' here to prevent 
that. But then no one can add properties. If you want to support that, 
then you need this to be a separate schema that devices can optionally 
include if they don't extend the properties, and then devices that 
extend the binding would essentially have the above with:

$ref: /schemas/leds/common.yaml#
unevaluatedProperties: false
properties:
  a-custom-device-prop: ...


If you wanted to define both common ethernet LED properties and 
device specific properties, then you'd need to replace leds/common.yaml 
above  with the ethernet one.

This is all the same reasons the DSA/switch stuff and graph bindings are 
structured the way they are.
