Daniel, right the ones I checked are symmetric but asymmetric timings are possible I guess, so I think now that specify the two delays is more accurate, maybe the binding should be something like this? pwm-delay-us = <delay_before_on delay_after_off>; > I understood it as "you set PWM and it takes a while for display to > light up" > but that's not correct.

That's the idea, the sequence is: Power on, you set the PWM signal, wait a bit and set the LED_EN signal. Power off, you clear the LED_EN signal, wait a bit and stop the PWM signal. Note that the patch inverts the sequence, before this patch first you set LED_EN signal and then the PWM signal I assumed that the sequence was wrong but maybe I'm mistaken and there are some panels that follow the original sequence. On the few panels I checked the power on/off sequence is how I described above, i.e. see [1] p. 17, the sequence is first PWM and then LED_EN. I'll take a look at other panel datasheets, or if you know one, could you provide me the datasheet?
