Hi Aleksandrs,

Thank you for your continued work on this.

One small remark below.

On 10-Sep-25 1:07 PM, Aleksandrs Vinarskis wrote:

Introduce common generic led consumer binding, where consumer defines
led(s) by phandle, as opposed to trigger-source binding where the
trigger source is defined in led itself.

Add already used in some schemas 'leds' parameter which expects
phandle-array. Additionally, introduce 'led-names' which could be used
by consumers to map LED devices to their respective functions.

This should probable be:

led-names = "privacy";

Now without the "-led".
Ah of course, seems I messed my rebasing, thanks for spotting it.
Re-spinning.
