+TI/National Semiconductor LP3943 MFD driver
+===========================================
+
+LP3943 is an integrated device capable of driving 16 output channels.
+It can be used for GPIO expander and PWM generators.
+LP3493 registers are controlled via the I2C interface.
+
+Driver structure
+----------------
+ LED control General usage for a device
+ ___________ ____________________________
+
+ LP3943 MFD ---- GPIO expander leds-gpio eg) HW enable pin
+ |
+ --- PWM generator leds-pwm eg) PWM input
+
+
+Why do we need GPIO and PWM drivers instead of LED driver?
+To support LED control and general usage, GPIO and PWM drivers are necessary.
+
+According to the datasheet(1), it's just a LED driver which has 16 channels.
+But here is another application, a GPIO expander.(2)
+
+ (1) http://www.ti.com/lit/ds/snvs256b/snvs256b.pdf
+ (2) http://www.ti.com/lit/an/snva287a/snva287a.pdf
+
+Internal two PWM channels are used for LED dimming effect.
+And each output pin can be used as a GPIO as well.
+LED functionality can work with GPIOs or PWMs.
+LEDs can be controlled with legacy leds-gpio(static brightness) or
+leds-pwm drivers(dynamic brightness control).
+Additionally, it can be used for generic GPIO and PWM controller.
+For example, a GPIO is HW enable pin of a device.
+PWM is input pin of a backlight device.
+
+
+LP3943 PWM port map
+-------------------
+Each PWM channel can be mapped to one or multiple output pins.
+
+For example, PWM 0 is used for a backlight device.
+PWM 1 is for RGB LEDs.
+
+ PWM channel Output pins PWM consumer
+ ___________ ___________ ____________
+ PWM 0 pin 1 backlight
+ PWM 1 pin 7, 8, 9 RGB LEDs
+
+Then, PWM port map is as below.
+PWM 0: num_outputs = 1, output = pin 1
+PWM 1: num_outputs = 3, output = pin 7, 8, 9
+
+The 'lp3943_pwm_map' structure is used for this feature.
+
+
+Device tree supported
