Since there were no existing drivers for the AS3668 or related devices,
a new driver was introduced in a separate file. Similar devices were
reviewed, but none shared enough characteristics to justify code reuse.
As a result, this driver is written specifically for the AS3668.

Hi,
first, I should that you should wait longer before sending each new
version, so that you can collect more feedback.

as3668_dt_init() is only called from the probe. Sometimes maintainers
prefer using "return dev_err_probe()" in such a case, to have less
verbose code.
(I don't know if it is the case for the leds subsystem)

Hi,
okay thanks, I will wait a week or two until sending the next patch.
I've never worked with this email-based workflow before. That's the
reason I've chosen this simple driver as a first patch in the first
place. Just to get a little bit of experience under my belt. I know I'm
making a few very obvious mistakes. I'm getting a bit overwhelmed by all
the things to remember, I guess.
Apologies for the noise.
Best regards,
Lukas Timmermann
