Absolutely, I'll fix that.

Checking for errors is always a good thing (even if in this case,
there's no reason it should fail).

Absolutely, I'll use this code chunk in place of the previous one.

Are you sure of this one, if pwmchip_remove fails, then the PWM chip
might still be used. And if we disable the clock the PWM chip won't work
anymore.
