I did not try on real hardware, but from reading the code I would say
the following would happen: led_classdev_register_ext() calls
led_compose_name(parent, init_data, composed_name) which itself calls
led_parse_fwnode_props(dev, fwnode, &props); that returns early due to
fwnode==NULL without changing props, thus this stays as initialized
with {}, so led_compose_name() would return -EINVAL which would let
led_classdev_register_ext() fail, too.

It is ugly, although the approach is inspired by the leds-gpio driver.
I'll see if I can come up with a change to led-core, but I'm also open
for suggestions. ;-)
fyi: Peter Ujfalusi answered and would give his Ack to the changed
dual license for the yaml file. You can expect that for v4.
Stay tuned
Alex
