I'm not clear on what this would be.  After re-running the
dt_binding_check with DT_CHECKER_FLAGS=-m, I see that the pattern
object definitions I have won't work since the numbering conflicts
with the existing led objects.  I was going to move these patterns
under a new 'predefine-patterns' object.  Is this what you mean by a
'generic binding'?

Yes, there is a sysfs interface for running patterns via the firmware
loading interface.  The firmware loading interface doesn't seem well
suited for constantly changing the pattern that the LED driver runs.
I found it to be slow and unreliable when quickly changing the LED
pattern.  The existing predef pattern functionality works much better.
Unfortunately the only way to define the patterns for it is via the
platform data structure.  Adding the predef patterns to the device
tree seemed like a good way to make use of the existing functionality
in the driver.
