 [PATCH v1 1/1] leds: Unexport of_led_get()

it would seem the removal of this function has removed the only way to search led phandles the device tree.

The devm version works functionally different and is not a replacement.

virtual led grouping drivers are unable to match phandles.

is there plans to create a fwnode_led_get() replacment for of_led_get ?

The problem is gpio leds don't have fwnode properties so searching by platform does not work.
