The leds-is31fl319x.c driver uses devm_led_classdev_register but the function
where 'function' and 'color' is parsed is led_parse_fwnode_props which is
called from led_compose_name which is called from led_classdev_register_ext
(or with the devm_ prefix), and not called from the register method without
_ext suffix.

So in other words, the led driver would need changes to use the new
registration API to be able to use 'function' and 'color' instead of 'label'.
