I read a few eDP panel data sheets, the PWM frequencies all start from
~200Hz. If the VBT chooses this lowest value to allow for more
brightness control, and then this patch lowers the value by another 25%,
we'll end up below the panel allowed PWM frequency.

In fact, one of the systems I checked had PWM frequency as 200Hz in VBT
and the panel datasheet also had PWM frequency range starting from
200Hz. Have you considered this case?

The spec said "A given LCD panel typically has a limited range of backlight frequency capability. 
To limit the programmable frequency range, limitations are placed on the allowable total divider ratio with the Sink device"
 So I think it should be auto cap to 200Hz in this case.

You are allowing fxp between +/- 25% of the actual. This isn't same as
the "Effective frequency is within 25% of desired frequency." right? The
frequency can vary between -20% and +33%.

You are right.
You want me to change commit message to reflect this or change the code to
match the commit message?
