Also perhaps this should describe what this PWM is instead of just the "disp-pwm" which leaves everyone guessing what it is. From the name I'd expect it to be the PWM that is used to control the backlight brightness for display, but I think this description should say that explicitly.quoted

I would prefert pwm-mtk-disp which is in line with the other drivers. Also I have to admit that unfortunately the naming is not uniformly throughout the kernel. Thanks, Matthias
