We have a TLC59108 on one of our boards, and with a quick glance it
looks about the same as TLC59116, except the amount of outputs. Vignesh
wrote a driver for it and was about to send it for review.

However, Vignesh implemented it as a PWM driver. We use it for LCD
backlight (via pwm-backlight).

I'm not very familiar with LED and PWM drivers, but doesn't implementing
this as a LED driver prevent us from using it as a backlight? Whereas it
looks like PWM can be used as a led via pwm-leds (I think).

 Tomi
