I don't understand why you introduce __pwm_get_state_hw() (a variant of
pwm_get_state_hw() that expects the caller to hold the chip lock) when the
single caller (apart from plain pwm_get_state_hw()) could just continue
to use pwm_get_state_hw().

In principle I'm open to such a patch and wonder if there is already a
merge plan for this series. If you send a simpler patch soon with the
same objective, I'll make sure it goes into v6.13-rc1 in the assumption
that it's to late for the whole series to go in then. Or do you still
target 6.13-rc1 for the spi bits? Then it would probably better to let
this patch go in with the rest via the spi tree.

Best regards
Uwe
