Surely this is required? What should be assumed if this property isn't
present?
Otherwise this looks OK, but I'm not that familiar with LED/flash
bindings.

LEDS_TRIG_TYPE_LEVEL allows for an ISP to do e.g. short flash blink
before the actual strobe - it is used for eliminating photographs with
closed eyes, or can serve for probing ambient light conditions.
With LEDS_TRIG_TYPE_EDGE flash strobe is triggered on rising edge
and lasts until programmed timeout expires.
This setting is tightly related to a camera sensor, which generates
the strobe signal. Effectively it depends on board configuration.

My comment wasn't to do with the semantics of eitehr option but rather
the optionality of the property.
Surely it's vital to know what this should be, and hence this property
should be required rather than optional?
If it isn't required, what would the assumed default be?
Mark.

Default is LEDS_TRIG_TYPE_EDGE.

I wonder if there's a use case for edge triggering. In level trigger mode,
whichever component generates the trigger signal, determines also the strobe
time (up to the timeout). The sensor or (in the case of lack of the signal
from the sensor) the ISP has the most information on the sensor timing.
The existing as3654a driver only supports level triggering while the chip
can do edge, too.
I'd make level default and perhaps add a V4L2 control / sysfs file to change
this if needed.

That sounds reasonable. I am going to come up with another version of
leds-max77693.c patch anyway, so I'll address this issue too.
