Date:		May 2013
KernelVersion:	3.11
Contact:	H Hartley Sweeten <hsweeten@visionengravers.com>
Description:
		A /sys/class/pwm/pwmchipN directory is created for each
		probed PWM controller/chip where N is the base of the
		PWM chip.

What:		/sys/class/pwm/pwmchipN/npwm
Date:		May 2013
KernelVersion:	3.11
