[PATCH v8 2/2] pwm: Add clock based PWM output driver

From: Nikita Travkin
Date: Mon Jul 11 2022 - 02:24:34 EST


Some systems have clocks exposed to external devices. If the clock
controller supports duty-cycle configuration, such clocks can be used as
pwm outputs. In fact PWM and CLK subsystems are interfaced with in a
similar way and an "opposite" driver already exists (clk-pwm). Add a
driver that would enable pwm devices to be used via clk subsystem.

Changes in v2:
- Address Uwe's review comments:
- Round set clk rate up
- Add a description with limitations of the driver
- Disable and unprepare clock before removing pwmchip
Changes in v3:
- Use 64bit version of div round up
- Address Uwe's review comments:
- Reword the limitations to avoid incorrect claims
- Move the clk_enabled flag assignment
- Drop unnecessary statements
Changes in v5:
- add missed returns
Changes in v6:
- Unprepare the clock on error
- Drop redundant limitations points
Changes in v7:
- Rename some variables to be in line with common naming
Changes in v8:
- Document the glitch that happens inbetween multiple clock operations
