Subject: [PATCH] pwm: dt: Fix description of second PWM cell
Date: Mon,  1 Oct 2012 08:47:33 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1349074053-18385-1-git-send-email-thierry.reding@avionic-design.de> (raw)

The second cell in the PWM specifier denotes the period in nanoseconds,
not the duty cycle. The latter can be freely configured at runtime and
a PWM with a fixed duty cycle would be rather pointless.
