Given that such a non-nice ca*l*culation only happens in the of case
that is introduced here, it would be nice to move this patch before the
introduction of the of-support.

If the clk rate changes while the PWM is on, this modifies the output.
This is unfortunate and so it justifies adding a call to
clk_rate_exclusive_get() when the PWM is on.
