There seems to be a 4-way mux in all variants, but the wiring is
different in the different products. E.g. in pm8941 1 represents VPH_PWR
while in pmi8994 this is pulled from a dedicated pin named VIN_RGB.
Would you like me to list the 4 options for each compatible?

Some use cases for this hardware block is to use it as a "traditional"
PWM source, so any channels not allocated to a LED are available as pwm
channels.
So this is from the Dragonboard410c, where the example application is to
wire this pwm signal as control signal to a backlight controller; i.e.
using pwm-backlight associated with the display panel.
For testing purposes I did route the signal to another gpio with a LED
on the board, added a LED node here and saw that I can control that as
well.
I did include this example here, even though there's no LED, just to
show how this could be done.

There is a few other hardware components that can be fed the output of
the LPG as control signal, but I think the GPIO sink case above does
showcase the power.
