I wonder how many boards have such LEDs.

Also if it wouldn't be better to expand the original leds-gpio driver.
Probably depends on how much larger would such expansion make the
leds-gpio driver.

Why do you include slab.h?

Use flexible array members. Allocate with
  devm_kzalloc(dev, struct_size(priv, states, priv->nr_states),
               GFP_KERNEL)

LED_FULL / LED_OFF are deprecated, don't use them.

???? max_brightness is not 255 (= LED_FULL). max_brightness must be
derived from the led-states property.

Again LED_FULL and LED_OFF...
What about default-state = "keep" ?

Hermes, do you actually have a device that controls LEDs this way? How
many brightness options do they have?

Also I think this functionality could be easily incorporated into the
existing leds-gpio driver, instead of creating new driver.

Moreover your driver can control only one LED, so it needs to be
probed multiple times for multiple LEDs. Meanwhile the leds-gpio driver
can register multiple LEDs in one probe...
