Merge tag 'pwm/for-4.7-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/thierry.reding/linux-pwm
Pull pwm updates from Thierry Reding:
"This set of changes introduces an atomic API to the PWM subsystem.
This is influenced by the DRM atomic API that was introduced a while
back, though it is obviously a lot simpler. The fundamental idea
remains the same, though: drivers provide a single callback to
implement the atomic configuration of a PWM channel.
As a side-effect the PWM subsystem gains the ability for initial state
retrieval, so that the logical state mirrors that of the hardware.
Many use-cases don't care about this, but for others it is essential.
These new features require changes in all users, which these patches
take care of. The core is transitioned to use the atomic callback if
available and provides a fallback mechanism for other drivers.
Changes to transition users and drivers to the atomic API are
postponed to v4.8"
