of_pwm_xlate_with_flags is a bit more complicated. Translating
accordingly this would yield:

if (pc->of_pwm_n_cells >= 2) {
if (args->args_count > 1 && args->args[1] & PWM_POLARITY_INVERTED)
pwm->args.polarity = PWM_POLARITY_INVERSED;
}

Given that pc->of_pwm_n_cells isn't used when a phandle is parsed (in
of_pwm_get()) I think your variant is fine.

So I think technically the patch is good, for me the question is if we
want to make new drivers of_pwm_xlate_with_flags for consistency even
though this would mean that the first argument has to be 0 for all
phandles. Thierry? Lee?

Best regards
Uwe
