Most but not all PWMs drive the PWM pin to its inactive state when disabled. However if there is no enable_gpio and no regulator the PWM must drive the inactive state to actually disable the backlight. So keep the PWM on in this case. Note that to determine if there is a regulator some effort is required because it might happen that there isn't actually one but the regulator core gave us a dummy. (A nice side effect is that this makes the regulator actually optional even on fully constrained systems.) This fixes backlight disabling e.g. on i.MX6 when an inverted PWM is used. Hint for the future: If this change results in a regression, the bug is in the lowlevel PWM driver.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
