This is quite long way to describe a bitmask, no? Could we make
it so that control-bank-cfg is not needed?
The problem we have here is there is a potential to control
3 different LED string but only 2 sinks.  So control bank A can control 2 LED strings and control
bank b can control 1 LED string.  
Can we forget about the LED strings, and just expose the sinks as
Linux LED devices?
