Hi Peter,

Thanks for your organization.

I agree to use one device tree binding and don't use regmap.
I will fix these in the next patch.
But, I am still confused by treating the PWM device to be a hwmon driver and not a PWM driver.
As I menthion in https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/ADD1E8B8-60F0-442A-BEF1-1AA304454963@aspeedtech.com/
I will try to add the reason, why I want to treat the driver as PWM driver instead of hwmon driver, as the link above in the next patch.
If you have any advice, please let me know.

Thanks,
Billy
