Drop "-backlight". Can it be anything else?

Drop quotes, you should see warnings for this.

It does not look like you tested the bindings, at least after quick
look. Please run `make dt_binding_check` (see
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/writing-schema.rst for instructions).
Maybe you need to update your dtschema and yamllint.

Why do you think this is a property of a board? Is PWM signal optional?
If so, its presence would define it. Otherwise it seems you want to
control the driver.

0 is minimum. Provide rather maximum? or just skip the property.

Same concerns.

Nope for these three. Use -microvolt suffix for one property.

No, you should not add here GPIOs for other devices.

So this proves the point - mps,dimming-mode looks redundant and not
hardware related.

Instead:
unevaluatedProperties: false

Drop all except of cells.

Nope, nope. FPGA reset pin is not related to this device.

Drop entire example. It differs by one property - missing pwms.
