Yeah I got that, the issue is the backlight functioning in the wrong 
way, it doesn't invert the value map. So max brightness is backlight off 
and min brightness is max brightness. Might need to add some extra 
property to the pwm-backlight driver to allow inverting the values so 
the brightness works as expected.

Unless I've somehow missed something in the pwm bindings.
