Adding the hardware description to the DT with the reason that some prior
boot stage might not have taken care of it is not great

How about:

The backlight on the Hamoa IoT EVK is controlled through a PWM signal.
Aligned with other x1e80100-based platforms: the PWM signal is controlled
by PMK8550, and the backlight enable signal is handled by PMC8380.

Describe the backlight device and connect it to the eDP panel to allow
for brightness control
