Forgot about that one. But I think that one also calls the
pwm setup function so might need to think about the ordering
a bit so that the log makes at least some sense.

I'll take a gander at it.

In this case it's just the initial pipe. But I guess we 
could log it. Looks like we have a debug message for it
already in intel_edp_backlight_setup(). I suppose I could
remove that one and include the information here instead.
