I tried to play a bit with that and here is what I got (simplified
DT parsing):

int used_hvleds[3] = {0, 0 ,0};
int used_control_banks[2] = {0, 0};

int parse_child_node(struct fwnode_handle *child)
{
	int bank_hvleds[3];

	fwnode_property_read_u32_array(child, "led-sources",
		bank_hvleds, LM3697_MAX_LED_STRINGS);

	for (i = 0; i <= 3; i++) {
		if (bank_hvleds[i] && used_hvleds[i])
			return -EINVAL;
		used_hvleds[i] = 1;
	}

	return 0;
}

struct fwnode_handle *child = NULL;

device_for_each_child_node(priv->dev, child)
	fwnode_property_read_u32(child, "reg", &control_bank);
	if (used_control_banks[control_bank])
		goto err;
	used_control_banks[control_bank] = 1;
	if (parse_child_node(child))
		goto err;
