You need to make sure the period setting is passed via the
conventional way in DT file.
Example:
pwmleds {
compatible = "pwm-leds";
heartbeat {
pwms = <&L45 0 10000000 0>;
max-brightness = <255>;
linux,default-trigger = "heartbeat";
};
};

I have tested on HiFive unleashed board. To modify DT file I performed
the following steps:

Use the open-source FSBL from:
https://github.com/sifive/freedom-u540-c000-bootloader

Modify the fsbl/ux00_fsbl.dts file and re-build the fsbl.bin

Steps for using fsbl.bin in HiFive Unleashed board:
