This is more complicated than necessary.

depends on RASPBERRYPI_FIRMWARE || COMPILE_TEST

is logically equivalent.

Please add a paragraph here about the hardware. See pwm-sifive.c for a
template. (Please stick to the format there to simplify grepping.)

The things to point out there are:

- No disable bit, so a disabled PWM is simulated by duty_cycle 0
- Only normal polarity
- Fixed period

Also add a note about if the currently running period is completed when
the hardware is reconfigured.

If possible please also add a link to a product page and/or
documentation.

Please round up the result of the division. (The idea is that if you
apply the state .get_state() returns this should yield no change.)

You need to check for polarity here.

What happens if duty_cycle happens to be bigger than RPI_PWM_MAX_DUTY?

I think the right thing to do here is:

if (state->period < RPI_PWM_PERIOD_NS ||
state->polarity != PWM_POLARITY_NORMAL)
return -EINVAL;

if (!state->enabled)
duty_cycle = 0
else if (state->duty_cycle < RPI_PWM_PERIOD_NS)
duty_cycle = state->duty_cycle * RPI_PWM_MAX_DUTY / RPI_PWM_PERIOD_NS;
else
duty_cycle = RPI_PWM_MAX_DUTY;

ret = raspberrypi_pwm_set_property(pc->firmware, RPI_PWM_CUR_DUTY_REG,
pc->duty_cycle);
if (ret)
...

pc->duty_cycle = duty_cycle;

Huh, why do you have to do this twice, just with different error
messages? I assume you want to set RPI_PWM_DEF_DUTY_REG? What is the
effect of writing this property?

Firmware.

I think you don't need this function. Just fix up period in .apply().

What does "pc" stand for? I'd have used "rpipwm" or something similar.

I don't see a mechanism that prevents the driver providing the firmware
going away while the PWM is still in use.

Please drop the empty line at the end of file.
