There's no mention here about what this line means. From the commit
message and the MODULE_AUTHOR I know that you're the author, so either
this should just be dropped or it should be prefixed with "Author: ".

It'd be nice to see some sort of connection between the register
definitions and which fields belong to them.

I don't think that lock is necessary here. You have per-channel
registers and each channel can only be used by one consumer at a time
anyway.

These should be static inline functions. Also I think for
berlin_pwm_writel() val should come after chip and channel to preserve a
more natural ordering of parameters.

I don't see any relationship between these values and the prescaler
table given in the comment. Please expand the comment to explain the
connection.

After reading the remainder of the code, I see that the values in this
table are the multiplication factors for each of the prescalers. It
shouldn't be necessary to read the code to find out, so please clarify
in the comment (and perhaps rename the table to something more related
to its purpose, such as prescale_factors).

Perhaps an even more easily digestible alternative would be to make this
a list of prescaler values and then use the values directly to compute
the number of cycles rather than iteratively dividing and needing this
unintuitive mapping.

This can be unsigned.

Don't you need to make sure that prescale doesn't exceed the table size?

Perhaps -ERANGE?

Why not enable the clock until after successful registration? It doesn't
seem like you need access before that. Doing so would introduce a subtle
race condition between adding the chip (and hence exposing it via sysfs)
and enabling the clock, so perhaps an even better approach would be to
add more fine-grained clock management by enabling or disabling it only
when necessary (clock enables are reference counted, so ->request() and
->free() would probably work fine in this case).

This isn't a real objection, though. If you prefer to keep things simple
the current code is fine with me.

You might want to disable the clock regardless. The driver will be
unloaded regardless of whether pwmchip_remove() returns failure or
not. The above would leak a clock enable, which may not be what you
want.

Please don't artificially pad. Single spaces around '=' is just fine.
