I just took a brief look at the LED driver. I think it would be
reasonable to move almost all of the platform_data into the driver
itself and associate the two versions with distinct "compatible"
strings. That works in this particular case because while the driver
is generic enough to handle other cases, I also wouldn't expect
it to ever get used again on another platform.

The main change to the driver would be to add support for a binding
that gets the seven gpio numbers out of the DT then.
