No. The trigger will be 'netdev'. Or 'heartbeat', or
'kbd-numlock'. They are just LEDs, they can be used for
anything. While testing some of this code i had the keyboard numlock
indicating network packets, since it easier to see than the RJ45
socket... The same applies the other way. The RJ45 LEDs are just Linux
LEDs, they can be used for anything...

I do have some code adding additional properties for the blink
reason. However, it is very debatable if it belongs in DT. DT
describes hardware, not configuration of hardware.

Do you actually have labels on the case indicating what the LEDs mean?
It could be we describe the label, which is hardware, not the
configuration of the LED, which is policy from user space.
