I'm hesitant to provide feedback on this, as I feel as though I've
messed you around enough, however ... ;)

Just FYI (it didn't even make it to 'nit' status), this should really
be done in a separate patch since it is unrelated to the rest of the
patch.

Not sure if it's even possible for of_property_read_u32() to fail AND
still populate num_steps, however this check makes it sound like that's
okay. Is that correct?
I can't help but think that this all 'just goes away' if you
pre-initialise num_steps. I wouldn't let the "do not initialise too
far away from the code using variable" affect this. However, if
you're insistent, perhaps consider moving the declaration to just
below:
if (data->max_brightness > 0) {
