+* LED Flash Manager
+
+Flash manager is a part of LED Flash Class. It maintains
+all the flash led devices which have their external strobe
+signals routed through multiplexing devices.
+The multiplexers are aggregated in the standalone 'flash_muxes'
+node as subnodes which are referenced by the flash led devices.
+
+
+flash_muxes node
+----------------
+
+muxN subnode
+------------
+
+There must be at least one muxN subnode, where N is the identifier
+of the node, present in the flash_muxes node. One muxN node
+represents one multiplexer.
+
+Required properties (mutually exclusive):
+- gpios : specifies the gpio pins used to set the states
+ of mux selectors, LSB first
+- mux-async : phandle to the node of the multiplexing device
+
+
+
+flash led device node
+---------------------
+
+Following subnodes must be added to the LED Flash Class device
+tree node described in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/leds/common.txt.
+
+
+gate-software-strobe subnode
+----------------------------
+
+The node defines configuration of multiplexers that needs
+to be applied to route software strobe signal to the flash
+led device.
+
+Required properties:
+- mux : phandle to the muxN node defined
+ in the flash_muxes node
+- mux-line-id : mux line identifier
+
+Optional subnodes:
+- gate-software-strobe : if there are many multiplexers to configure,
+ they can be recursively nested.
+
+
+gate-external-strobeN subnode
+-----------------------------
+
+The node defines configuration of multiplexers that needs
+to be applied to route external strobe signal to the flash
+led device. A flash led device can have many external strobe
+signal sources.
+
+Required properties:
+- mux : phandle to the muxN node defined
+ in the flash_muxes node
+- mux-line-id : mux line identifier
+Optional properties:
+- strobe-provider : phandle to the device providing the
+ strobe signal. It is expected only
+ on the first level node. The referenced
+ node is expected to have 'compatible'
+ property, as providers are labelled
+ with it in the LED subsystem
+
+Optional subnodes:
+- gate-external-strobeN : if there are many multiplexers to configure,
+ they can be recursively nested.
+
+
+Example:
+
+Following board configuration is assumed in this example:
+
+ ---------- ----------
+ | FLASH1 | | FLASH2 |
+ ---------- ----------
+ \(0) /(1)
+ ----------
+ | MUX1 |
+ ----------
+ |
+ ----------
+ | MUX2 |
+ ----------
+ /(0) \(1)
+ ---------- --------------------
+ | MUX3 | | SOC FLASHEN GPIO |
+ ---------- --------------------
+ /(0) \(1)
+----------- -----------
+| SENSOR1 | | SENSOR2 |
+----------- -----------
