Here the first argument should be led_cdev->dev, not dev, which is
&pdev->dev, whereas led_cdev->dev is returned by
device_create_with_groups (it takes dev as a parent) called from
led_classdev_register.
The reason for this is the fact that pdev->dev has its of_node
field initialized, which makes v4l2_async trying to match
subdev by parent node of a LED device, not by sub-LED related
DT node.
If v4l2_subdev->of_node is set, then it won't be replaced with one from
struct device. I.e. you need to provide of_node pointer only if it's
different from dev->of_node.
It will always be different since dev->of_node pointer is related
to the main DT node of LED device, whereas each LED connected to it
must be expressed in the form of sub-node, as
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/leds/common.txt DT states.
You can still refer to the device's root device_node using a phandle.
Why should I need to refer to the device's root node?
What I meant here was that DT documentation enforces that even if
there is a single LED connected to the device it has to be expressed
as a sub-node anyway. Each LED will have to be matched by the phandle
to the sub-node representing it. This implies that v4l2_subdev->of_node
(related to sub-LED DT node) will be always different from dev->of_node
(related to LED controller DT node).
Say, if you have a LED flash controller with an indicator. It's intended to
be used together with the flash LED, and the existing as3645a driver exposes
it through the same sub-device. I think that'd make sense with LED class
driver as well (i.e. you'd have two LED class devices but a single
sub-device). Small changes to the wrapper would be needed.
How the sub-device name should look like then? We would have to
concatenate somehow both LED class device names?
