How will you know which array position is for which child LED?
I presume DT child nodes are not guaranteed to be parsed in the order
of declaration?

I tried to fiddle this out, but it seems Jacek is right over here.
The multi-led definition looks like this (from the documentation leds-lp50xx.yaml)

multi-led@1 {
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <0>;
reg = <0x1>;
color = <LED_COLOR_ID_RGB>;
function = LED_FUNCTION_CHARGING;

led-0 {
color = <LED_COLOR_ID_RED>;
};

led-1 {
color = <LED_COLOR_ID_GREEN>;
};

led-2 {
color = <LED_COLOR_ID_BLUE>;
};
};

But it seems that the color definition of each led is ignored.
By ignored I mean the driver does not take care which color
is at which position. So if I change led-0 to be LED_COLOR_ID_BLUE
and led-2 to be LED_COLOR_ID_RED nothing will change if I write
from userspace. Could you help to clarify?
Then it is even hard to know which led to set with default-intensity.

See Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-class-led-multicolor and
documentation of multi_index and multi_intensity files.
It is the multi_index file that tells what is the order of colors
in the multi_intensity file.

And that depends on the order of enumeration of the nodes by DT parser.

Also it seems that the enumeration of the multi-leds should
start with multi-led@0 (and not 1 as in the documentation).

The @unit-address part of node name must match the first address
specified in the reg property of the node, so this is correct.
