Please send DT bindings to DT list or it's never in my queue. IOW,
send patches to the lists that get_maintainers.pl tells you to.

Please make this a DT schema.

OK.

BTW I used "make dt_binding_check" but had to fix a couple of YAMLs file to get it to work. Do you have a kernel tree with already all the YAML files in good shape ? Or do you want me to post the changes to devicetree@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ?

+led-backlight bindings
+
+This binding is used to describe a basic backlight device made of LEDs.
+It can also be used to describe a backlight device controlled by the output of
+a LED driver.
+
+Required properties:
+  - compatible: "led-backlight"
+  - leds: a list of LEDs
'leds' is already used as a node name and mixing is not ideal.

We already have 'flash-leds' in use and with the same definition, so
lets continue that and use 'backlight-leds'.
OK

+
+Optional properties:
+  - brightness-levels: Array of distinct brightness levels. The levels must be
+                       in the range accepted by the underlying LED devices.
+                       This is used to translate a backlight brightness level
+                       into a LED brightness level. If it is not provided, the
+                       identity mapping is used.
+
+  - default-brightness-level: The default brightness level.
You can just assume these 2 get a common schema at some point. So just
need to define any additional constraints if possible.

Maybe we should keep them until such a common schema is written ?
