so i would change comment like this:

		/* cooling level (0, 1, 2)
		 * signal is inverted on board
		 * mtk pwm driver does not support
		 * PWM_POLARITY_INVERTED */

as far as i understand using label also makes "function" property useless, after discussing
this with eric i would drop both on all 4 places by labels like these:

label = "yellow-lan";
label = "green-lan";
...

not sure if we should drop color property too...
