If you want to properly switch to the new extended LED registration
API, then you need:

.default_label = ":",
.devicename = led->client->name;

and in addition to that you need to remove old way of composing
the LED name. Something like patch [0] for leds-lm3692x.c.
And also patch for DT for consistency would be needed (like [1]).

However it will not change anything in LED naming in comparison
to the existing code, except that it will enable the possibility
of using 'function' and 'color' DT properties instead of deprecated
'label'.

I suppose that you expected some extra bonus by passing
DT node, but I'm not sure what exactly. Possibly you confused
this with the patch set [2] that allows for instantiating
backlight device on top of LED class device (it has been forgotten
btw and will miss 5.4).

And for lm3532 - it was just relying on the glue provided by
ledtrig-backlight, as pointed out by Tony in [3].
