Complementary channels are pwm channels where the signal level is inverted
compare to the original channel.
This parameter indicate that the hardware have this kind of outputs.
If the polarity of the original channel change then polarity of
complementary channel
change too.

I would like keep "timer" for timer-trigger sub-node

Not per hardware block but their is 12 of them in the SoC.
Adding a number (which match with SoC documentation) help to find
the wanted pwm in sysfs either we only have the address.
