I'll keep an eye out for when these patches land and send them on top.
Feel free to add me to the CC list for future revisions.

Assuming these devices have a different "LPG subtype" you should be able
to read their value and add it to the list as third option.
Alternatively, can you point out the driver this `3<<4` mask was based
on? With all the information available it should be possible to derive
this from hardware for every channel instead of hardcoding it.

That is true, all the errors not covered are extremely unlikely like
-ENOMEM. I vaguely recall having to insert extra logging to get through
initial probe, but that might have been something inside lpg_add_led as
well. Fine to leave this as it is.
