[PATCH v5 3/3] pwm: i.MX: Avoid sample FIFO overflow for i.MX PWM version2

[Liu Ying]

The i.MX PWM version2 is embedded in several i.MX SoCs,
such as i.MX27, i.MX51 and i.MX6SL.  There is a 4-word(16bit)
sample FIFO in this IP.  Each FIFO slot determines the duty
period of a PWM waveform in one full cycle.  The IP spec
mentions that we should not write a fourth sample because
the FIFO will become full and triggers a FIFO write error
(FWE) which will prevent the PWM from starting once it is
enabled.  In order to avoid any sample FIFO overflow issue,
this patch clears all sample FIFO by doing software reset
in the configuration hook when the controller is disabled
or waits for a full PWM cycle to get a relinquished FIFO
slot when the controller is enabled and the FIFO is fully
loaded.

The FIFO overflow issue can be reproduced by the following
commands on the i.MX6SL EVK platform, assuming we use PWM2
for the debug LED which is driven by the pin HSIC_STROBE
and the maximal brightness is 255.
echo 0   > /sys/class/leds/user/brightness
echo 0   > /sys/class/leds/user/brightness
echo 0   > /sys/class/leds/user/brightness
echo 0   > /sys/class/leds/user/brightness
echo 255 > /sys/class/leds/user/brightness
Here, FWE happens(PWMSR register reads 0x58) and the LED
can not be lighten.

Another way to reproduce the FIFO overflow issue is to run
this script:
while true;
	do echo 255 > /sys/class/leds/user/brightness;
done

v4->v5:
* Rebase up to the commit(1/3 in this series) which fixes
  the macro MX3_PWMCR_PRESCALER(x) definition.

v3->v4:
* To address Sascha's comment, drop the rollover event approach
  and wait for a full PWM cycle to get a relinquished FIFO slot
  when the controller is enabled and the FIFO is fully loaded.
* Update commit message accordlingly, including a new way to
  reproduce the FIFO overflow issue.

v2->v3:
* Wait for a rollover event before configuration when PWM
  is active with non-zero duty period.  And, update commit
  message for that.
* Fix some typos in commit head and message(fifo -> FIFO,
  pwm -> PWM, etc).
* Cc linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

v1->v2:
* To address Lothar WaÃmann's comment, add a timeout mechanism
  instead of endless polling the SWR bit to be cleared by the
  hardware.
