Hello, your second reply is nearly identical to the first. It would be helpful to only write new stuff in new mail. I think there is only a single new paragraph that I will reply to here.

The strategy you should implement in .apply() is: Pick the biggest period that is not bigger than the requested period. With that period pick the biggest duty_cycle that is not bigger than the requested duty_cycle. As the actual period might be smaller than state->period, dividing by the latter yields a result that might be too small. See commit 8035e6c66a5e98f098edf7441667de74affb4e78 (currently in next) for a similar example.
