LUT is a "lookup table"(https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/leds/leds-qcom-lpg.yaml?h=v6.4#n14)
and in this case holds pattern data i.e LUT patterns.
Currently, qcom,pm660l-lpg, qcom,pm8150b-lpg, qcom,pm8150l-lpg, qcom,pm8941-lpg, qcom,pm8994-lpg,
qcom,pmc8180c-lpg, qcom,pmi8994-lpg, and qcom,pmi8998-lpg all have an a specific LUT peripheral
(https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/leds/rgb/leds-qcom-lpg.c?h=v6.4-rc7#n1382)
and this is already being handled in leds-qcom-lpg.
What is new with this patch set is that instead of having a LUT peripheral, some PMICs use nvmem to
hold LUT pattern and other lpg per channel data.
The use of nvmems to store LUT pattern and lpg data is called PPG.
You can either have a single nvmem PPG (a single nvmem device that holds LUT pattern
and lpg per channel data) or two-nvmem PPG(1 nvmem for LUT pattern and 1 nvmem for lpg per channel data)
I can update the descritpion for the entire binding to mention PPG and LUT so this is more clear.

When you say constrained per variant, are you looking for something more like this?
i.e.
allOf:
- if:
properties:
compatible:
contains:
const: qcom,pmi632-lpg
then:
properties:
nvmem:
maxItems: 1
nvmem-names:
items:
- const: lpg_chan_sdam
required:
- nvmem
- qcom,pbs-client
- if:
properties:
compatible:
contains:
const: qcom,pm8350c-pwm
then:
properties:
nvmem:
maxItems: 2
nvmem-names:
items:
- const: lpg_chan_sdam
- const: lut_sdam
required:
- nvmem

So we actually cannot integrate these properties into existing examples.
The current examples are for PMICs that use LUT peripherals (https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/leds/rgb/leds-qcom-lpg.c?h=v6.4#n1417).
This patch series is adding support for PMICs that do not have a LUT peripheral
and instead store LUT patterns and LPG configurations in either 1 or 2 NVMEM(s).

which is why this was not included in the above 2 nvmem PPG example. I see how these two PPG examples
are repetitive so I am ok with getting rid of one of them but I do think we should have at least one PPG example.
