pwm: samsung: Fix output race on disabling
When disabling the Samsung PWM the output state remains at the level it was at the end of a PWM cycle. In other words, calling pwm_disable() when at 100% duty cycle will keep the output active, while at all other settings the output will go/stay inactive. On top of that the Samsung PWM settings are double-buffered, which means the new settings only get applied at the start of a new PWM cycle. This results in a race if the PWM is at 100% duty cycle and a driver calls: pwm_config(pwm, 0, period); pwm_disable(pwm); In this case the PWMs output will unexpectedly stay active, unless a new PWM cycle happened to start between the register writes in pwm_config() and pwm_disable(). As far as I can tell this is a regression introduced by 3bdf8781, before that a call to pwm_config() would call pwm_samsung_enable() which, while heavy-handed, made sure the expected settings were live. To resolve this, while not re-introducing the issues 3bdf8781 (flickering as the PWM got reset while in a PWM cycle) fixed, only force an update of the settings when at 100% duty cycle, which shouldn't have any noticeable effect on the output but is enough to ensure the behaviour is as expected on disable.
