Hi Alvaro,

Thanks for the update. Since this patch will require also DT ack,
please add devicetree@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx on cc as you'll be posting
next version

Please drop the colon after "should be".
Also it is more common to insert a space before the colon character.
e.g.:

compatible : should be ...

Please apply this rule to each property.

How about:

brcm,serial-leds: Boolean, enables Serial LEDs.

Boolean should begin with capital letter. Please refer to the other
bindings in Documentation/devicetree/bindings to keep the style of
DT documentation consistent.
Also default value should be mentioned.

How about:

Required properties for sub-nodes:

How about:

Optional properties for sub-nodes related to software controlled LEDs:

Please drop "(optional)" as you are already mentioned this in the
section header.
