If the PWM_PIN_LEVEL bit is setup to 1 in the bootloader, when the kernel
disable the PWM, the PWM output is always set as a logic 1.

I presume there's a reason why the bootloader set this bit to 1. Why do
you assume it's the right thing to clear it?

There is an alternative mode for the PWM output pin; using the 
PWM_PIN_LEVEL bit to control the PWM output (logical 0 or 1 on 
output) when the PWM is disable.

In this case, the bootloader is using the PWM_PIN_LEVEL bit
to control the PWM output (always 1) to enable the LCD; the 
application is using the PWM to control the intensity of the 
LCD output. When disabling the PWM, the line level should be 
setup to 0.

A version 2 of this patch will be send with support to select 
the alternate PWM disable level high from the device tree.
