This patch adds helpers to support device tree bindings for the generic
PWM API. Device tree binding documentation for PWM controllers is also
provided.

Changes in v6:
- don't override error code in of_pwm_simple_xlate()
- no longer export of_pwm_request(), only pwm_get() should be used
- do a reverse lookup of the index into the "pwms" property by matching
  the con_id parameter to the "pwm-names" property

Changes in v5:
- use IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_OF) along with the compiler's DCE instead of
  empty implementations of of_pwmchip_add() and of_pwmchip_remove() in
  the !OF case
- remove OF_PWM Kconfig symbol and make OF support code conditional on
  the OF symbol only
- use "pwms" and "pwm-names" fixed property names
- remove redundant check in of_pwm_simple_xlate()
- use pwm_request_from_chip() instead of pwm_request_from_device()
- integrate OF support with pwm_get() from new patch 4

Changes in v4:
- add OF-specific code removed from patch 2
- make of_node_to_pwmchip() and of_pwm_simple_xlate() static
- rename of_get_named_pwm() to of_pwm_request(), return a struct
  pwm_device, get rid of the now unused spec parameter and use the
  device_node.name field as the PWM's name
- return a requested struct pwm_device from pwm_chip.of_xlate and
  drop the now unused spec parameter
- move OF support code into drivers/pwm/core.c
- used deferred probing if a PWM chip is not available yet

Changes in v2:
- add device tree binding documentation
- add of_xlate to parse controller-specific PWM-specifier

+Specifying PWM information for devices
+======================================
+
+1) PWM user nodes
+-----------------
+
+PWM users should specify a list of PWM devices that they want to use
+with a property containing a 'pwm-list':
+
+	pwm-list ::= <single-pwm> [pwm-list]
+	single-pwm ::= <pwm-phandle> <pwm-specifier>
+	pwm-phandle : phandle to PWM controller node
+	pwm-specifier : array of #pwm-cells specifying the given PWM
+			(controller specific)
+
+PWM properties should be named "pwms". The exact meaning of each pwms
+property must be documented in the device tree binding for each device.
+An optional property "pwm-names" may contain a list of strings to label
+each of the PWM devices listed in the "pwms" property. If no "pwm-names"
+property is given, the name of the user node will be used as fallback.
+
+Drivers for devices that use more than a single PWM device can use the
+"pwm-names" property to map the name of the PWM device requested by the
+pwm_get() call to an index into the list given by the "pwms" property.
+
+The following example could be used to describe a PWM-based backlight
+device:
+
+	pwm: pwm {
+		#pwm-cells = <2>;
+	};
+
+	[...]
+
+	bl: backlight {
+		pwms = <&pwm 0 5000000>;
+		pwm-names = "backlight";
+	};
+
+pwm-specifier typically encodes the chip-relative PWM number and the PWM
+period in nanoseconds. Note that in the example above, specifying the
+"pwm-names" is redundant because the name "backlight" would be used as
+fallback anyway.
+
+2) PWM controller nodes
+-----------------------
+
+PWM controller nodes must specify the number of cells used for the
+specifier using the '#pwm-cells' property.
+
+An example PWM controller might look like this:
+
+	pwm: pwm at 7000a000 {
+		compatible = "nvidia,tegra20-pwm";
+		reg = <0x7000a000 0x100>;
+		#pwm-cells = <2>;
+	};
