This is actually a kernel bug where the PWM isn't saved. It affects the
specific display type in this machine. It's been fixed upstream
already, and was brought into Ubuntu 16.04 (See SRU
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1625932).
The Precision 5510 however ships with Ubuntu 14.04 + vivid HWE stack.
The vivid HWE stack does not contain the fix, which is why this issue is
happening.
