Sorry, I used what get_maintainers.pl threw at me, I should have
manually cc-ed the LED list.

With the PHY maintainers we discussed to define a binding that is
compatible with that of the LED one, to have the option to integrate
it with the LED subsystem later. The integration itself is beyond the
scope of this patchset.

The PHY LED configuration is a low priority for the project I'm
working on. I wanted to make an attempt to upstream it and spent
already significantly more time on it than planned, if integration
with the LED framework now is a requirement please consider this
series abandonded.
