Subject: [PATCH v3 3/8] dt-bindings: leds: leds-mt6323: Support WLED output

Some PMICs have a separated WLED string output: add a property
`mediatek,is-wled` to indicate which LED string is a WLED.

Why would it matter to what the output is connected to?

Best regards,

Skipping this one. Please resolve and resend.

When this property is present, the MT6323 LEDs are managed through different
hardware registers which are specific to WLEDs: if we have no indication of
whether this is a WLED or a LED, we would program the wrong registers.

P.S.: Sorry for the very late reply

OK, so it is rather the choice of output in the device? What is "LED
string" in this context?

"LED string" is a term that is commonly used to refer to an array of LEDs.
Usually, in the context of displays (so, WLED!), it refers to the LEDs array
that forms the backlight.

And yes, it's choice of output in the HW.
