I suggest you add labels to these LEDs.

label = "red-LED"
label = "green-LED"

This make things so much easier in sysfs.
I'm not sure to understand where it makes things easier in sysfs.
This is the sysfs path for the red led:
/sys/class/leds/red/

Indeed, if label is not present, it gets the node name.
Usually people also want to add a default linux,trigger to these,
like linux,default-trigger = "heartbeat"; but whatever you prefer.
Makes sense, I will add default trigger in next version.
