misc: atmel_pwm: add deferred-probing support
commit 5c6d6fd1564138ad048564e48639f842714a90c6 upstream. Two drivers (atmel-pwm-bl and leds-atmel-pwm) currently depend on the atmel_pwm driver to have bound to any pwm-device before their devices are probed. Support deferred probing of such devices by making sure to return -EPROBE_DEFER from pwm_channel_alloc when no pwm-device has yet been bound.
