I think I'd prefer the original text with an additional line mentioning
the managed variants.

This is missing parameter descriptions here.

"works like"? Also "acquired PWM" or "acquired PWM device".

Same comments as for devm_pwm_get().

Can the managed variants be grouped together, please?

Looks good otherwise. Thanks for taking care of it.
