pwm: twl-led: Document some limitations and link to the reference manual
I found these just from reading the reference manual and the driver source. It's unclear to me if there are glitches when updating the ON and OFF registers. Signed-off-by: Uwe Kleine-König <u.kleine-koenig@pengutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Thierry Reding <thierry.reding@gmail.com>

* Reference manual for the twl6030 is available at:
|
||||||
|
* https://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/twl6030.pdf
|
||||||
|
*
|
||||||
|
* Limitations:
|
||||||
|
* - The twl6030 hardware only supports two period lengths (128 clock ticks and
|
||||||
|
* 64 clock ticks), the driver only uses 128 ticks
|
||||||
|
* - The hardware doesn't support ON = 0, so the active part of a period doesn't
|
||||||
|
* start at its beginning.
|
||||||
|
* - The hardware could support inverted polarity (with a similar limitation as
|
||||||
|
* for normal: the last clock tick is always inactive).
|
||||||
|
* - The hardware emits a constant low output when disabled.
|
||||||
|
* - A request for .duty_cycle = 0 results in an output wave with one active
|
||||||
|
* clock tick per period. This should better use the disabled state.
|
||||||
|
* - The driver only implements setting the relative duty cycle.
|
||||||
|
* - The driver doesn't implement .get_state().
