Subject[PATCH -mm 2/2] PWM LED driver
Date
From: David Brownell <david-b@pacbell.net>

This is a LED driver using the PWM on newer SOCs from Atmel; brightness
is controlled by changing the PWM duty cycle. So for example if you've
set up two leds labeled "pwm0" and "pwm1":

echo 0 > /sys/class/leds/pwm2/brightness # off (0%)
echo 80 > /sys/class/leds/pwm2/brightness
echo 255 > /sys/class/leds/pwm2/brightness # on (100%)

Note that "brightness" here isn't linear; maybe that should change.
Going from 4 to 8 probably doubles perceived brightness, while 244
to 248 is imperceptible.

This is mostly intended to be a simple example of PWM, although it's
realistic since LCD backlights are often driven with PWM to conserve
battery power (and offer brightness options).
