I do not understand what the fallback entry means.

"hisilicon,hibvt-pwm" is a general compatible string, which is available for most HiSilicon BVT SOCs.
Howerver, "hisilicon,hi3516cv300-pwm" is specially for hi3516cv300.

Maybe I should note the compatible string as described above, right?

"pwm-nums" means the maximum number of PWMS that this controller can support, which is the hardware capability.
E.g.,HI3516CV300 PWM controller supports 4 PWM, while other chips support 8 PWM.

I agree that the PWM number is probeable based on the compatible string. I shall change it, thanks.

Ok, it's right. I'll fix it in next v2 patch.
