Qualcomm PM8058 chip has 8 channels of PWM, also called LPG (Light
Pulse Generator). All PWM channels can be used as simple PWM machine
or as a more advanced PWM pattern generator using programmed lookup
table. This patch supports simple PWM machine as a sub device of
pmic8058 core.
To use PWM:
1. #include <linux/pwm.h>
2. #include <linux/pmic8058-pwm.h> only when you want to do the
configuration by yourself.
3. First call
* pwm_request() -- to reserve a PWM chanel
4. Call these APIs to configure & start/stop a PWM waveform
* pwm_config(period, duty) -- to configure a PWM wave
* pwm_enable() -- to start and enable the PWM output
* pwm_disable() -- to stop and disable the PWM output
You can repeat above 3 calls for different PWM waveforms.
5. Last call
* pwm_free() -- to free the PWM channel
