Yes, now it is much easier to understand the logic behind LED mapping.
Thanks for adding that! I think it will save some time for anyone who
will be working with that code in the future.

The only thing I still do not understand is the initial 14 bit shift:

For example, according to the code above, for port 4:
- the value is shifted by 14 bits - to bits (15,14)
- mask is also set to bits (15,14)
- then, both mask and value are shifted again by 16 bits:

> val << reg_info.shift);

because reg_info.shift == QCA8K_LED_PHY4_CONTROL_RULE_SHIFT == 16 for
port_num == 4.

It means, in fact, for controlling port 4 we use bits (31,30) which
seems to be inconsistent with your comment below.

Are values for ports 0 and 4 correct in your description in
"qca8k_led_brightness_set()"?

Thanks,
