Actually what "direction" does would be nice to explain, because I
don't know. Does it make the motor turn the other way around?

should->Should.

Is nanoseconds right unit here? It drives a motor...

Thanks,

Yes, at least that's how I understand it. IIUIC this will increase
the imbalance effect and thus the vibration.

Yes, for the driving the motor the values will be very big
and we could use milliseconds. But the PWM specifier [0] uses
nanoseconds for the period and I think period and duty cycle
should be described in the same scale.

+* PWM vibrator device tree bindings
+
+Registers a PWM device as vibrator. It is expected, that the vibrator's
+strength increases based on the duty cycle of the enable PWM channel
+(100% duty cycle meaning strongest vibration, 0% meaning no vibration).
+
+The binding supports an optional direction PWM channel, that can be
+driven at fixed duty cycle. If available this is can be used to increase
+the vibration effect of some devices.
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: should contain "pwm-vibrator"
+- pwm-names: Should contain "enable" and optionally "direction"
+- pwms: Should contain a PWM handle for each entry in pwm-names
+
+Optional properties:
+- vcc-supply: Phandle for the regulator supplying power
+- direction-duty-cycle-ns: Duty cycle of the direction PWM channel in
+                           nanoseconds, defaults to 50% of the channel's
+			   period.
+
+Example from Motorola Droid 4:
+
+&omap4_pmx_core {
+	vibrator_direction_pin: pinmux_vibrator_direction_pin {
+		pinctrl-single,pins = <
+		OMAP4_IOPAD(0x1ce, PIN_OUTPUT | MUX_MODE1) /* dmtimer8_pwm_evt (gpio_27) */
+		>;
+	};
+
+	vibrator_enable_pin: pinmux_vibrator_enable_pin {
+		pinctrl-single,pins = <
+		OMAP4_IOPAD(0X1d0, PIN_OUTPUT | MUX_MODE1) /* dmtimer9_pwm_evt (gpio_28) */
+		>;
+	};
+};
+
+/ {
+	pwm8: dmtimer-pwm {
+		pinctrl-names = "default";
+		pinctrl-0 = <&vibrator_direction_pin>;
+
+		compatible = "ti,omap-dmtimer-pwm";
+		#pwm-cells = <3>;
+		ti,timers = <&timer8>;
+		ti,clock-source = <0x01>;
+	};
+
