SubjectRe: [PATCH v3] leds: implement OpenFirmare GPIO LED driver

Basically what I did then in my patch then, refactor leds-gpio so most of
it is shared and there is a block of code that does platform binding and
another block that does of_platform binding.

I didn't change the OF platform binding syntax so as not to complicate the
example, but that's easy to do. Something like:

leds {
compatible = "gpio-led";
gpios = <&mpc8572 6 0
&mpc8572 7 0>;
labels = "red", "green";
};

Or like this, which needs a little more code to parse:

leds {
compatible = "gpio-led";
led@6 {
gpios = <&mpc8572 6 0>;
label = "red";
};
led@7 {
gpios = <&mpc8572 7 0>;
label = "green";
};
};

I like the first better. It follows the example from the docs about how
devices with multiple gpios should work too.
