+LEDs connected to GPIO lines
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible : should be "gpio-leds".
+
+Each LED is represented as a sub-node of the gpio-leds device.  Each
+node's name represents the name of the corresponding LED.
+
+LED sub-node properties:
+- gpios :  Should specify the LED's GPIO, see "Specifying GPIO information
+  for devices" in Documentation/powerpc/booting-without-of.txt.  Active
+  low LEDs should be indicated using flags in the GPIO specifier.
+- label :  (optional) The label for this LED.  If omitted, the label is
+  taken from the node name (excluding the unit address).
+- linux,default-trigger :  (optional) This parameter, if present, is a
+  string defining the trigger assigned to the LED.  Current triggers are:
+    "backlight" - LED will act as a back-light, controlled by the framebuffer
+		  system
+    "default-on" - LED will turn on, but see "default-state" below
+    "heartbeat" - LED "double" flashes at a load average based rate
+    "ide-disk" - LED indicates disk activity
+    "timer" - LED flashes at a fixed, configurable rate
+- default-state:  (optional) The initial state of the LED.  Valid
+  values are "on", "off", and "keep".  If the LED is already on or off
+  and the default-state property is set the to same value, then no
+  glitch should be produced where the LED momentarily turns off (or
+  on).  The "keep" setting will keep the LED at whatever its current
+  state is, without producing a glitch.  The default is off if this
+  property is not present.
+
+Examples:
+
+leds {
+	compatible = "gpio-leds";
+	hdd {
+		label = "IDE Activity";
+		gpios = <&mcu_pio 0 1>; /* Active low */
+		linux,default-trigger = "ide-disk";
+	};
+
+	fault {
+		gpios = <&mcu_pio 1 0>;
+		/* Keep LED on if BIOS detected hardware fault */
+		default-state = "keep";
+	};
+};
+
+run-control {
+	compatible = "gpio-leds";
+	red {
+		gpios = <&mpc8572 6 0>;
+		default-state = "off";
+	};
+	green {
+		gpios = <&mpc8572 7 0>;
+		default-state = "on";
+	};
+}
