Right, but why the values don't match the ones from the documentation?
e.g.: 2, 262, 524, 1049, 2097 etc.

And regarding sysfs attributes - they should be readable and return
the aligned value.

So, call "regmap_write(regmap, reg, brightness)" only if brightness > 0.

How about below (error handling skipped):

if (brightness > 0) {
         regmap_write(regmap, reg, brightness);
	lm3633_led_enable_bank(lmu_led);
} else {
	lm3633_led_disable_bank(lmu_led);
}
