[PATCH v4 0/1] Change PWM-controlled LED pin active mode and algorithm

[Conor Dooley]

Hey Nylon,

(I yoinked the reply to 1/1 to here, as it makes more sense in this
context)

I didn't see anything in linux-next that would solve this problem of
inversion. The last meaningful change is:
	commit 334c7b13d38321e47d1a51dba0bef9f4c403ec75
	Author:     Emil Renner Berthing <emil.renner.berthing at canonical.com>

	Commit:     Thierry Reding <thierry.reding at gmail.com>
	CommitDate: Mon Jan 30 16:42:45 2023 +0100
	
	    pwm: sifive: Always let the first pwm_apply_state succeed

which predates your v3 by quite a bit.

And if this patch is okay in isolation, please reply here explaining
which commit fixed the algorithm, so that I can pick it up.

Thanks,
Conor.
