That part is fine.

Together with "For the sake of integrity, include headers we are direct
user of." this makes an a bit schizophrenic impression on me. You add
<linux/types.h> because the file is a direct user of it, but you drop
<linux/device.h> despite being a direct user.

If you adapt the reasoning to something like:

Replace the inclusion of <linux/device.h> by a forward declaration of
struct device plus a (cheaper) #include of <linux/types.h> as
<linux/device.h> is an expensive include (measured in compiler effort).

I could better live with it. I would even split this into two patches
then. (i.e. move struct pwm_lpss_chip vs the include and forward change)

Best regards
Uwe
