The Xiaomi [Mi]Pad 2 has 3 menu / home / back capacitive touch-buttons on its bottom bezel. These are backlit by LEDs attached to a TPS61158 LED controller which is controlled by the "pwm_soc_lpss_2" PWM output. Create a LED class device for this, using the new input-events trigger as default trigger so that the buttons automatically light up on any input activity. Note alternatively a "leds_pwm" platform device could be created together with the necessary fwnode_s_ and a fwnode link to the PWM controller. There are 2 downsides to this approach: 1. The code would still need to pwm_get() the PWM controller to get/attach a fwnode for the PWM controller fwnode link and setting up the necessary fwnodes is non-trivial. So this would likely require more code then simply registering the LED class device directly. 2. Currently the leds_pwm driver and its devicetree bindings do not support limiting the maximum dutycycle to less then 100% which is required in this case (the leds_pwm driver can probably be extended to allow this).

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
