Merge tag 'pwm/for-4.7-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/thierry.reding/linux-pwm

Pull pwm updates from Thierry Reding:
 "This set of changes introduces an atomic API to the PWM subsystem.
  This is influenced by the DRM atomic API that was introduced a while
  back, though it is obviously a lot simpler.  The fundamental idea
  remains the same, though: drivers provide a single callback to
  implement the atomic configuration of a PWM channel.

  As a side-effect the PWM subsystem gains the ability for initial state
  retrieval, so that the logical state mirrors that of the hardware.
  Many use-cases don't care about this, but for others it is essential.

  These new features require changes in all users, which these patches
  take care of.  The core is transitioned to use the atomic callback if
  available and provides a fallback mechanism for other drivers.

  Changes to transition users and drivers to the atomic API are
  postponed to v4.8"

 After being requested, a PWM has to be configured using:
 
-int pwm_config(struct pwm_device *pwm, int duty_ns, int period_ns);
+int pwm_apply_state(struct pwm_device *pwm, struct pwm_state *state);
 
-To start/stop toggling the PWM output use pwm_enable()/pwm_disable().
+This API controls both the PWM period/duty_cycle config and the
+enable/disable state.
+
+The pwm_config(), pwm_enable() and pwm_disable() functions are just wrappers
+around pwm_apply_state() and should not be used if the user wants to change
+several parameter at once. For example, if you see pwm_config() and
+pwm_{enable,disable}() calls in the same function, this probably means you
+should switch to pwm_apply_state().
+
+The PWM user API also allows one to query the PWM state with pwm_get_state().
+
+In addition to the PWM state, the PWM API also exposes PWM arguments, which
+are the reference PWM config one should use on this PWM.
+PWM arguments are usually platform-specific and allows the PWM user to only
+care about dutycycle relatively to the full period (like, duty = 50% of the
+period). struct pwm_args contains 2 fields (period and polarity) and should
+be used to set the initial PWM config (usually done in the probe function
+of the PWM user). PWM arguments are retrieved with pwm_get_args().

+Drivers are encouraged to implement ->apply() instead of the legacy
+->enable(), ->disable() and ->config() methods. Doing that should provide
+atomicity in the PWM config workflow, which is required when the PWM controls
+a critical device (like a regulator).
+
+The implementation of ->get_state() (a method used to retrieve initial PWM
