[PATCH v3 0/2] Add support for Microchip's pwm fpga core

Hey Uwe,
Got a ~v2~ v3 for you...
I added some comments explaining the calculations and a documentation link
so hopefully things are a bit easier to follow.

Code wise, I went through and sorted out a bunch of issues that cycling
through the different periods/duties threw up. Along the way I found
some other problems - especially with the longer periods which I have
fixed. I also added a write to the sync register in the apply function,
which will resolve to a NOP for channels without "shadow registers".

Other than that, I managed to ditch the mchp_core_pwm_registers struct
entirely but had to add a short delay before reading back the registers
in order to compute the duty.

Thanks,
Conor.

Changes from v2:
- fix percieved idempotency and rounding issues when shadow registers were
enabled
- use do_div() for divide of u64 tmp in apply_period()

Changes from v1:
- account for edge "quirk" while inverted
- block changing enabled channels' period
- document the hardware/driver limitations
- rearrange get_state() more logically
- fix cast sizes in get_state()
- fix remove() and probe error paths
- delete mchp_core_pwm_registers
- simplify .apply() logic
- don't warn in calculate_base()
- fix period calculation
- fix duty cycle calculation
- add COREPWM prefix to defines
- add a documentation link
