PWM LED driver



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).
