[PATCH v3 3/4] pwm: core: Export of_pwm_request() so client drivers can also use it

Allow client driver to use of_pwm_request() to get the pwm they need. This
is needed for drivers which handle more than one pwm separately, like
leds-pwm driver which have:

pwmleds {
	compatible = "pwm-leds";
	kpad {
		label = "omap4::keypad";
		pwms = <&twl_pwm 0 7812500>;
		max-brightness = <127>;
	};

	charging {
		label = "omap4:green:chrg";
		pwms = <&twl_pwmled 0 7812500>;
		max-brightness = <255>;
	};
};

in the dts files.
