Hi Oleksandr,

Thank you for the patch.

As mentioned by Paul, I'd use "inverted" instead of "reverted". Your
patch series is trying to standardized on "inverted", let's not add
another term :-)

I would squash this patch with 2/7, apart from that it looks fine.
However, I also agree with Thierry that the PWM cell that contains this
value is a bitmask, so once we get more flags it may get a bit awkward.
Will we have one macro for each flag that will evaluate to 0 to report
that the flag isn't set ? Or should we define a single PWM_FLAG_NONE (or
similarly named) macro ? In retrospect, maybe PWM_POLARITY_INVERTED
should have been named PWM_FLAG_POLARITY_INVERTED.
