[PATCH v5 2/4] pwm: make it possible to apply pwm changes in atomic context
From: Sean Young
Date: Sat Nov 18 2023 - 11:18:13 EST
Some pwm devices require sleeping, for example if the pwm device is
connected over i2c. However, many pwm devices could be used from atomic
context, e.g. memmory mapped pwm. This is useful for, for example, the
pwm-ir-tx driver which requires precise timing. Sleeping causes havoc
with the generated IR signal.
Since not all pmw devices can support atomic context, we also add a
pwm_is_atomic() function to check if it is supported.
