The value inside `pwm_led_0` must be the same as you used before. The value inside `pwm_led_0` after `&pwm0` must be the channel number. Since (`<ch0-pin>`) is used in the `&pwm0` node the channel in this example is 0.
In this example `10000` is the period of the PWM waveform, some drive circuitry might require different values, it could also be altered in the event the drive frequency is audible.

If your board uses a P-channel MOSFET to control backlight instead of a N-channel MOSFET, you may want to change `PWM_POLARITY_NORMAL` for `PWM_POLARITY_INVERTED`.
