Okay, I've applied this to my for-next branch, with some minor changes.
For one I had to merge it with Alex's managed functions patch. Second I
changed all dummy functions that return a struct pwm_device * to return
ERR_PTR(-ENODEV) instead of NULL because PWM users typically check for
IS_ERR(pwm) and not for NULL.
