This series introduces an "adapter" driver that allows PWM consumers to control clock outputs with duty-cycle control. Some platforms (e.g. some Qualcomm chipsets) have "General Purpose" clocks that can be muxed to GPIO outputs and used as PWM outputs. Those outputs may be connected to various peripherals such as leds in display backlight or haptic feedback motor driver. To avoid re-implementing every single PWM consumer driver with clk support (like in [1]) and don't put the burden of providing the PWM sources on the clock drivers (as was proposed in [2]), clk based pwm controller driver is introduced. There is an existing driver that provides the opposite function in drivers/clk/clk-pwm.c with a compatible "pwm-clock" so the new driver uses the opposite naming scheme: drivers/pwm/pwm-clk.c and compatible "clk-pwm".
