I seem to recall having said something similar before, but maybe this
was a different series (there is no v2 or higher in the Subject ...)

I think it would be sensible to drop the vendor prefix and go with plain
"num-pwms" (or "npwms" to align to "ngpios" in the gpio bindings).

This sounds wrong. "Failed to get number of pwms" sounds better to my
(non-native) ear.

I agree with Matthias Brugger that at least for some time you should be
able to fall back to the right number of pwms if the device tree doesn't
have a num-pwms property.
