Out of the supported ones:

{ .compatible = "qcom,pmi8950-wled", .data = (void *)4 },
{ .compatible = "qcom,pmi8994-wled", .data = (void *)4 },
{ .compatible = "qcom,pmi8998-wled", .data = (void *)4 },
{ .compatible = "qcom,pm660l-wled", .data = (void *)4 },

I can confirm both allowed and default values for PMI8950/98/PM660L

I could not find any data for PMI8994 (or PMI8996, the essentially
PMI8994-revbump), but it's very probable that 8950 is an oddball,
so:

This commits add support for pmi8998 and documentation is telling which 
PMIC supports which values:
https://git.codelinaro.org/clo/la/kernel/msm-4.4/-/commit/7a1b6d0276828f270180db40935bb034a3470865
TLDR:
- qcom,ovp-mv		: Over voltage protection threshold in mV. Default is
			  29500. Supported values are:
			  - 31000, 29500, 19400, 17800 for pmi8994/8952/8996. (As far as i 
know 8952=8950)
			  - 31100, 29600, 19600, 18100 for pmicobalt/pm2falcon 
(pmi8998/pm660l)

minimum and maximum should stay here. Or alternatively enum with all the
values, but I think first options is enough.

I really don't like how this driver went about abstracting parsing

This tells us what the fix is, but not why the fix needs to be made.
We can infer the former from the patch contents, but it's really
important that the next reader, perhaps in 5 years, can find out the
reason it was made.

How about:

"""
PMI8950 doesn't actually support setting an OVP threshold value of
29.6 V. The closest allowed value is 29.5 V. Set that instead.

The backlight on this device is connected via 3 strings. Currently,
