After a quick grep over the bindings I'd say those led-X are using
"gpios" or "pwms" property to associate them with real HW and seems that
there is exactly one example of doing some implicit mapping: nxp,pca953x.yaml

It seems to me that using "reg" is much more widespread (if it's neither "gpios"
nor "pwms").
