pwm_get_state returns an error code. Do you care if it fails? (You
probably should.)

Why would you ignore EINVAL?

pwmstate could be declared here.

This is a change in behaviour. Before lp855x_probe() didn't modify the
state the bootloader left the backlight in. Now you're disabling it (I
think). Is this intended?
