>From the 'outside' of twl4030 we have: LEDA, LEDB, PWM0 and PWM1 pins. This is
more important from system integration point of view than what name the TRM
calls the PWM (PWMA) behind of the LEDA terminal for example.

At the end in the board file you will have to use something like this:

static struct pwm_lookup zoom_pwm_lookup[] = {
	PWM_LOOKUP("twl-pwm", 0, "leds_pwm", "zoom::keypad"),       /* PWM0 */
	PWM_LOOKUP("twl-pwm", 1, "pwm-backlight", "backlight"),     /* PWM1 */
	PWM_LOOKUP("twl-pwm-led", 0, "leds_pwm", "zoom::blinking"), /* LEDA */
};

I'll add comment to both the pwm-twl and pwm-twl-led driver for clarification.
