[PATCH] pwm: mtk-disp: Fix period readback

From: Chen-Yu Tsai

Date: Thu Aug 27 2026 - 06:59:03 EST


The period value stored in the register is the number of clock cycles - 1.

Account for the offset when calculating the period in nanoseconds. This
fixes the discrepancy reported by the pwm core when CONFIG_PWM_DEBUG=1:

mediatek-disp-pwm 1100e000.pwm: .apply is not idempotent
(ena=1 pol=0 281500/499875) -> (ena=1 pol=0 281500/499750)

Calculation discrepancy in the driver was found by AI run by a colleague
while debugging another PWM related issue. Check against SoC datasheet
and fix done by the author.
