Please make this a DT schema.

OK.

BTW I used "make dt_binding_check" but had to fix a couple of YAMLs file to get it to work. Do you have a kernel tree with already all the YAML files in good shape ? Or do you want me to post the changes to devicet...@vger.kernel.org ?

+led-backlight bindings
+
+This binding is used to describe a basic backlight device made of LEDs. +It can also be used to describe a backlight device controlled by the output of
+a LED driver.
+
+Required properties:
+  - compatible: "led-backlight"
+  - leds: a list of LEDs
'leds' is already used as a node name and mixing is not ideal.

We already have 'flash-leds' in use and with the same definition, so
lets continue that and use 'backlight-leds'.
OK

I am taking that back. I have added of_get_led() and devm_of_get_led() to the LED core to make it easier to get a LED from the DT. I modeled the interface like it is done for PWM, PHYs or clocks. The property containing list/array of phandle  is always named the same. To get one particular PWM/PHY/clock, a identifier (name or integer) must be provided.

So unless there is a strong incentive to do otherwise I's rather keep this name here.

You can just assume these 2 get a common schema at some point. So just
need to define any additional constraints if possible.

Maybe we should keep them until such a common schema is written ?
