[PATCH 5.10 26/63] pwm: mxs: Dont modify HW state in .probe() after the PWM chip was registered

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

From: Uwe Kleine-König <u.kleine-koenig@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 020162d6f49f2963062229814a56a89c86cbeaa8 upstream.

This fixes a race condition: After pwmchip_add() is called there might
already be a consumer and then modifying the hardware behind the
consumer's back is bad. So reset before calling pwmchip_add().

Note that reseting the hardware isn't the right thing to do if the PWM
is already running as it might e.g. disable (or even enable) a backlight
that is supposed to be on (or off).

Fixes: 4dce82c1e840 ("pwm: add pwm-mxs support")
