If they are h/w controlled, then why are they in DT?

What makes this linux specific?
Unless you're going to make this h/w specific, then it probably should just be dropped.
The phy schema will need:

How is this linux specific? It sounds device specific. Your choice is make this a device specific property with device specific values or come up with generic modes.
Perhaps 'function' should be expanded.

Reading the description of LED_FUNCTION_STATUS doesn't align with how you are using it. Think of it as user alert/notification.

This is deprecated in favor of 'function'.
