pwm: Add ChromeOS EC PWM driver
Use the new ChromeOS EC EC_CMD_PWM_{GET,SET}_DUTY commands to control one or more PWMs attached to the Embedded Controller. Because the EC allows us to modify the duty cycle (as a percentage, where U16_MAX is 100%) but not the period, we assign the period a fixed value of EC_PWM_MAX_DUTY and reject all attempts to change it. This driver supports only device tree at the moment, because that provides a very flexible way of describing the relationship between PWMs and their consumer devices (e.g., backlight). On a non-DT system, we'll probably want to use the non-GENERIC addressing (i.e., we'll need to make special device instances that will use EC_PWM_TYPE_KB_LIGHT or EC_PWM_TYPE_DISPLAY_LIGHT), as well as the relatively inflexible pwm_lookup infrastructure for matching devices. Defer that work for now. Signed-off-by: Brian Norris <briannorris@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: Thierry Reding <thierry.reding@gmail.com>
