CCing Uwe Kleine-Koenig and linux-pwm mailing list.

I know that at least in kernel 6.11 the pwm-stm32.c PWM driver doesn't
properly invert the PWM signal when specifying PWM_POLARITY_INVERTED. I agree
this is a probably bug that needs fixing if still present in 6.14-rc. Besides
that, if linux-pwm agrees that every single PWM driver _must_ properly support
this flag, I will drop this consumer flag an start fixing broken PWM drivers
that I encounter. I agree that it makes more sense this way, but I wanted to
be sure.

Best regards,
