Currently, lp55xx_of_populate_pdata() allocates lp55xx_platform_data if
it's null. And it parses the DT and copies values into the
'client->dev.platform_data'. This may have architectural issue.
Platform data is configurable through the DT or I2C board info inside the
platform area. However, lp55xx common driver changes this configuration
when it is loaded. So 'client->dev.platform_data' is not null anymore.
Eventually, the driver initialization is not identical when it's unloaded
and loaded again.
The lp55xx common driver should use the private data, 'lp55xx_chip->pdata'
instead of changing the original platform data.
So, lp55xx_of_populate_pdata() is modified as follows.
* Do not update 'dev->platform_data'. Return the pointer of new allocated
lp55xx_platform_data. Then the driver points it to private data,
'lp55xx_chip->pdata'.
* Each lp55xx driver checks the pointer and handles an error case.
Then, original platform data configuration will be kept regardless of
loading or unloading the driver.
The driver allocates the memory and copies them from the DT if it's NULL.
After the driver is loaded again, 'client->dev.platform_data' is same as
initial load, so the driver is initialized identically.

LP8501 can drive up to 9 channels like LP5523.
LEDs can be controlled directly via the I2C and programmable engines are
supported.
LP55xx common driver
LP8501 is one of LP55xx family device, so LP55xx common code are used.
Chip specific data is defined in the structure, 'lp55xx_device_config'.
Differences between LP8501 and LP5523
Different register layout for LED output control and others.
LP8501 specific feature for separate output power selection.
LP8501 doesn't support external clock detection.
Different programming engine data.
LP8501 specific feature - output power selection
Output channels are selected by power selection - Vout or Vdd.
Separate power for VDD1-6 and VDD7-9 are available.
It is configurable in the platform data.
To support this feature, LP55xx DT structure and header are changed.
Device tree binding is updated as well.
LED pattern data
Example pattern data is updated in the driver documentation.
