MX28: leds/pwm: Using pwm driven led as heartbeat leads to kernel warning

[Stefan Wahren]

Hello,

i'm using a i.MX28 custom board with two leds and Kernel 3.14-rc5.

Here is the relevant dts part:

pwmleds {
        compatible = "pwm-leds";
        pinctrl-names = "default";
        pinctrl-0 = <&pwm0_pins_b>; /* MX28_PAD_AUART1_RX__PWM_0 */
       
        led0 {
            label = "duckbill:red";
            pwms = <&pwm 0 7812500>;
            max-brightness = <127>;
            linux,default-trigger = "none";
        };
};

gpioleds {
        compatible = "gpio-leds";
        pinctrl-names = "default";
        pinctrl-0 = <&led_pins>;

        led1 {
            label = "duckbill:green";
            gpios = <&gpio3 5 0>;
            linux,default-trigger = "heartbeat";
        };
};

The gpio driven led works perfect as heartbeat. But if i change the
trigger of the pwm
driven led from none to heartbeat, it results always in a kernel warning
and the pwm led
keeps on:
