What you say is correct, but we've treated all gen2/3 similar to PNV
since

    drm/i915: Treat pre-gen4 backlight duty cycle value consistently

i.e. we only use the high 15 bits for all gen2/3. For non-PNV this just
means the lowest bit is always zero. For PNV the lowest bit has a
different meaning in both the PWM freq and duty cycle fields.

I don't want to take any chances by changing this behaviour. I realize
there's zero comments about this in the code; would you like me to add
some?


BR,
Jani.
