Looking at the callers: - drivers/gpu/drm/solomon/ssd130x.c It does: pwm_init_state(ssd130x->pwm, &pwmstate); pwm_set_relative_duty_cycle(&pwmstate, 50, 100); pwm_apply_state(ssd130x->pwm, &pwmstate); pwm_enable(ssd130x->pwm); A probably better result can be reached quicker using: pwm_init_state(ssd130x->pwm, &pwmstate); pwm_set_relative_duty_cycle(&pwmstate, 50, 100); pwmstate.enabled = true; pwm_apply_state(ssd130x->pwm, &pwmstate); - drivers/hwmon/pwm-fan.c __set_pwm should probably explicitly set .enabled. All other calls to pwm_apply_state set .enabled explicitly. - drivers/input/misc/da7280.c explicitly sets .enabled after calling pwm_init_state() - drivers/input/misc/pwm-beeper.c explicitly sets .enabled after calling pwm_init_state() - drivers/input/misc/pwm-vibra.c explicitly sets .enabled after calling pwm_init_state() - drivers/leds/leds-pwm.c explictily sets .enabled before calling pwm_apply_state() - drivers/leds/rgb/leds-pwm-multicolor.c explictily sets .enabled before calling pwm_apply_state() - drivers/media/rc/ir-rx51.c explictily sets .enabled before calling pwm_apply_state() - drivers/media/rc/pwm-ir-tx.c explictily sets .enabled before calling pwm_apply_state() - drivers/regulator/pwm-regulator.c never sets .enabled, probably a bug - drivers/video/backlight/lm3630a_bl.c explictily sets .enabled before calling pwm_apply_state() - drivers/video/backlight/lp855x_bl.c explictily sets .enabled before calling pwm_apply_state() - drivers/video/backlight/pwm_bl.c This is the one we currently discuss. I think even with the patch applied it uses the .enabled value returned by pwm_init_state() but it shouldn't. - drivers/video/fbdev/ssd1307fb.c Similar to drivers/gpu/drm/solomon/ssd130x.c. Probably the one was copied to the other given that it seems to handle the same hardware. So all consumers using pwm_init_state() either don't use the .enabled value returned by pwm_init_state() or at least shouldn't do that.
