[PATCH 1/2] pwm: pca9685: fix duty cycle loss on disable/enable

From: Clemens Gruber
Date: Thu Nov 12 2020 - 11:45:47 EST


Currently, disabling a pwm channel clears the OFF registers, which
resets the configured duty cycle. Therefore, after a disable/enable
sequence, the pwm state is not in the same state as it was before.
As a workaround, the user had to do a config call after disable/enable.

Fix it by only toggling the "full-off" bit in disable/enable and no
longer use the "full-on" / "full-off" bits in config.

>From now on, the "full-on" bit is only used in GPIO mode and the
"full-off" bit is only used in disable/enable, which also reduces
complexity in the driver.
