[Intel-gfx] [PATCH v4] drivers: i915: Default backlight PWM frequency

Simon Que sque at chromium.org

If the firmware did not initialize the backlight PWM registers, set up a
default PWM frequency of 200 Hz.  This is determined using the following
formula:

  freq = refclk / (128 * pwm_max)

The PWM register allows the max PWM value to be set.  So we want to use
the formula, where freq = 200:

  pwm_max = refclk / (128 * freq)

This patch will, in the case of missing PWM register initialization
values, look for the reference clock frequency.  Based on that, it sets
an appropriate max PWM value for a frequency of 200 Hz.

If no refclk frequency is found, the max PWM will be zero, which results
in no change to the PWM registers.
