Hi Uwe,

Yes, that's what I explain in the commit message: ...registers content
may be lost when going to low power mode.
Do you think I need to rephrase ?

I can split this to ease the review.

It's also useful for PWM provider: This PWM driver is part of a MFD that
also take care of IIO trigger (can be used simultaneously). Simply
reading a register doesn't tell us that the timer is used/configured as
a PWM here. That's the reason to use this helper to read pwm->state.

Do you wish I add a comment to clarify this here ?

That's the purpose of returning -EBUSY: "PWM should not stop if the PWM
user didn't call pwm_disable()" ... "to avoid situation where the PWM is
actually suspended before the user". This has been enforced in later
series with the device_link_add(). See our previous discussions here:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/2/5/770
So, I guess this would point exactly a lack for a PWM user to manage it
after the boot stage, in the kernel.

Could you please clarify, provide an example here ?

Thanks for reviewing,
BR,
