The Maxim MAX25014 is a 4-channel automotive grade backlight driver IC
with integrated boost controller.

In the current implementation the control registers for channel 1,
control all channels. So only one led subnode with led-sources is
supported right now. If at some point the driver functionality is
expanded the bindings can be easily extended with it.

define whole binding, allow 0-3. binding is not related with driver's
implement.
it'd better put unders leds.
so like:
backlight: backlight@6f {
compatible = "maxim,max25014";
reg = <0x6f>;
enable-gpios = <&gpio1 4 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
pinctrl-names = "default";
pinctrl-0 = <&pinctrl_backlight>;
maxim,iset = <7>;
leds {
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <0>;
led@0 {
reg = <0>;
led-sources = <0 1 2>;
default-brightness = <50>;
};
optional led@#....
};
};
right?
Kind regards,
