OK, if you are intrested only on the DT changes I can list:
>From v0 to v6:
- There was only qca8k Documentation addition for the leds node.
  Some extra binding were dropped due to implementation change but they
  were only specific to qca8k.

In v7:
- The default-trigger for netdev was introduced (this caused some
  warning for missing netdev trigger for that binding)
- It was suggested and asked to make the LEDs generic and add
  Documentration for phy-ethernet.yaml

In v8:
- The netdev trigger was added to the list of accepted default-trigger
- The Documentation for phy-ethernet.yaml was added

Then we decided to "reboot" the series and:
In v1:
- The default-trigger is dropped (will be introduced later when the work
  for the netdev trigger will be done)
- We use the default state to "keep"

This should be the entire changelog excluding some changed things done
from v0 to v6 with low review and implementation changed at least 3
times during the life of that series.
