Hi Florian,

Thanks for the patch. I have two remarks below.

I think that you don't need this property. Just provide the formula for
calculating led-max-microamp value, similarly as you're doing that in
the commit message.

Please add instead of (maximum ...):

Valid values: min - max, step by N (rounded {up|down})

E.g.

Valid values: 10000 - 30000, step by 1000 (rounded down)
