I was going to send the ones I did but they are pretty dirty from a code
stand point.
Besides I would expect the framework to change which then changes the
driver code.

I think this would be fine at least there is a documented equation. I

Why? This just caches the intensity of each colored LED. Then the
actual brightness is calculated only when the brightness file is updated.
This would be an automatic update of the LED and that is not the intent
of the intensity file per the documentation.
The user should be able to set the colors x number of times before the
LED group is actually updated with the brightness.

Nack to the available_colors. I did this originally and the issue is
that the driver sets the bits in available_colors and no matter what the
order is in the DT file the indexing is always red green and blue per
the LED_COLORS array. The framework has no legitimate way to know the
order in which the colors were added.
This posed an issue with the LP55xx code as the RGB was defined with
different colors assigned to different channels. Green was 0 blue was 2
and red was 6. So the driver would have to map the channels to the
colors. In forcing the device driver to set the color index it can then
map the output channels itself. The framework should not care what
channel is for what color. In either case the device driver will need
to store the color index mapped to the channel output but having the
index to color being a 1-1 mapping made the code much simpler for the
device driver.
Basically it turned out to be a simple for loop that just stored both
channel and color as opposed to having to re-map the colors to indexes.
So for the LP55xx I can get an index of green, blue red and that maps to
the channels per the DT. I don't think the framework should enforce a
standard color index array ordering.
If we use the available_colors we don't even need the color_index and we
can just pass the available_colors to the user space as a u32 and let
the user space figure what colors are available. Which means the user
space would assume the order per the LED_COLORS array.
