The same problem exists in pwm_sifive_get_state(), doesn't it?

As fixing this is an interruptive change anyhow, this is the opportunity
to align the driver to the rules tested by PWM_DEBUG.

The problems I see in the driver (only checked quickly, so I might be
wrong):

 - state->period != ddata->approx_period isn't necessarily a problem. If
   state->period > ddata->real_period that's fine and the driver should
   continue

 - frac = DIV64_U64_ROUND_CLOSEST(num, state->period);
   is wrong for two reasons:
   it should round down and use the real period.

Best regards
Uwe
