Only DT bindings of LED class drivers should be placed in
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/leds. Please move it to the
media bindings.

that's where I placed it first, but Rob asked me to put it in the
LED directory and Cc the LED mailining list.

That's the discussion of the version 2:

Rob, Jacek, could you please agree where I can put the binding?

I'm not sure if this is a good approach. I've noticed also that
backlight bindings have been moved to leds, whereas they don't look
similarly.

We have common.txt LED bindings, that all LED class drivers' bindings
have to follow. Neither backlight bindings nor these ones do that,
which introduces some mess.

And there are probably LED bindings that don't follow common.txt either.

Eventually adding a sub-directory, e.g. remote_control could make it
somehow logically justified, but still - shouldn't bindings be
placed in the documentation directory related to the subsystem of the
driver they are predestined to?

No. While binding directories often mirror the driver directories, they
are not the same. Bindings are grouped by types of h/w and IR LEDs are a
type of LED.

If you prefer a sub-dir, that is fine with me.

Fine. So how about sub-dir "ir" ?

would we put here all the remote control bindings that currently
are under media?

No. Only if they are just an LED that happens to be IR.
