I don't think there is a dependency here. default-brightness-level still
makes sense with there is no mapping table present.

Based on Sam's feedback perhaps adding ("if one is provided") to the
parenthetic text.

Just for the record, these dependencies are OK. Iit isn't really a good
idea to map 1:1 to a PWM since we end up with a gazillion
indistinguishable levels so the bindings (and the driver) to not allow
such a mode.
