Thanks, Rob. I just want to double check whether you noticed some
binding-related questions I had in the coverletter [1]. In hindsight
I should probably have included them in the patch comments as well so 
they'd show up in patchwork. For convenience, I'll repeat them here:

I choose to have 'reg' be 1-based in order to follow the hardware 
documentation. It seems 0-based is the normal choice, although HW
docs also usually use the 0-based numbering. Perhaps being consistent 
with other bindings is more important than being consistent with the 
datasheet's numbering?

I used the 'reg' property for the LED channel, as it seemed ePAPR 
required that name. I also considered naming the property 'chan', 
and not pretending that it represented a bus address at all (and
then removing the @n from the subnode names). That would solve the
'reg' question above as a side-effect, but would be inconstant with
other LED bindings (tca6507, pca963x, tlc59108, etc).

Note that the recently-added (and only in for-next) SN3218 driver 
uses a 0-based 'reg' property, and the SN3218 has the same HW doc
numbering as the IS31FL32xx family (indeed the IS31FL3218 appears 
to be a rebranded SN3218). So perhaps that sets the precedent if 
there was not one before?

Any guidance you could offer would be appreciated (especially since
this is my first from-scratch binding, and I'd rather not form any
bad habits).
