Uwe Kleine-König 24906a41ee pwm: bcm-iproc: Prevent unloading the driver module while in use
The owner member of struct pwm_ops must be set to THIS_MODULE to
increase the reference count of the module such that the module cannot
be removed while its code is in use.

Uwe Kleine-König 71523d1812 pwm: Ensure pwm_apply_state() doesn't modify the state argument
It is surprising for a PWM consumer when the variable holding the
requested state is modified by pwm_apply_state(). Consider for example a
driver doing:

        #define PERIOD 5000000
        #define DUTY_LITTLE 10
        ...
        struct pwm_state state = {
                .period = PERIOD,
                .duty_cycle = DUTY_LITTLE,
                .polarity = PWM_POLARITY_NORMAL,
                .enabled = true,
        };

        pwm_apply_state(mypwm, &state);
        ...
        state.duty_cycle = PERIOD / 2;
        pwm_apply_state(mypwm, &state);

For sure the second call to pwm_apply_state() should still have
state.period = PERIOD and not something the hardware driver chose for a
reason that doesn't necessarily apply to the second call.

So declare the state argument as a pointer to a const type and adapt all
drivers' .apply callbacks.

Yendapally Reddy Dhananjaya Reddy daa5abc41c pwm: Add support for Broadcom iProc PWM controller
Add support for the PWM controller present in Broadcom's iProc family of
SoCs. It has been tested on the  Northstar+ bcm958625HR board.
