Bagas Sanjaya a8fd44cbd2 Documentation: leds: MT6370: Use bullet lists for timing variables
The timing description contains list of timing pattern variables, but it
uses code block without indentation instead. Switch to bullet list as it
is better fit for this purpose.

While at it, substitute "load" for "duty" because the variables control
timing for current load into the device.

=========================================
The device for Mediatek MT6370 RGB LED
=========================================
Description
-----------
The MT6370 integrates a four-channel RGB LED driver, designed to provide a
variety of lighting effect for mobile device applications. The RGB LED devices
includes a smart LED string controller and it can drive 3 channels of LEDs with
a sink current up to 24mA and a CHG_VIN power good indicator LED with sink
current up to 6mA. It provides three operation modes for RGB LEDs:
PWM Dimming mode, breath pattern mode, and constant current mode. The device
can increase or decrease the brightness of the RGB LED via an I2C interface.
The breath pattern for a channel can be programmed using the "pattern" trigger,
using the hw_pattern attribute.
/sys/class/leds/<led>/hw_pattern
--------------------------------
Specify a hardware breath pattern for a MT6370 RGB LED.
The breath pattern is a series of timing pairs, with the hold-time expressed in
milliseconds. And the brightness is controlled by
'/sys/class/leds/<led>/brightness'. The pattern doesn't include the brightness
setting. Hardware pattern only controls the timing for each pattern stage
depending on the current brightness setting.
Pattern diagram::
"0 Tr1 0 Tr2 0 Tf1 0 Tf2 0 Ton 0 Toff" --> '0' for dummy brightness code

Timing description:
* Tr1: First rising time for 0% - 30% load.
* Tr2: Second rising time for 31% - 100% load.
* Ton: On time for 100% load.
* Tf1: First falling time for 100% - 31% load.
* Tf2: Second falling time for 30% to 0% load.
* Toff: Off time for 0% load.
* Tr1/Tr2/Tf1/Tf2/Ton: 125ms to 3125ms, 200ms per step.
* Toff: 250ms to 6250ms, 400ms per step.
Pattern example::
"0 125 0 125 0 125 0 125 0 625 0 1050"
This Will configure Tr1/Tr2/Tf1/Tf2 to 125m, Ton to 625ms, and Toff to 1050ms.
