I know it was 3 years ago, but any idea how to reproduce the problems
you were seeing without this patch? I believe the downstream kernel
never had any delay like this and I'm not aware of any issues.

I wonder if the need for this extra 100 ms delay is no longer there
now that we have:

3157694d8c7f pwm-backlight: Add support for PWM delays proprieties.
5fb5caee92ba pwm-backlight: Enable/disable the PWM before/after LCD
enable toggle.
6d5922dd0d60 ARM: dts: rockchip: set PWM delay backlight settings for Veyron
