Hi,
Thank you for your review and sorry for the slow reply.
No problem for me, I didn't hold my breath :-)

DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST_ULL is most probably wrong, too. But I didn't spend
the time to actually confirm that.
Yes I saw your comment elsewhere that the PWM API defines rounding
in a certain direction, but fixing that falls outside of this patch.
Yeah, sure.

I hope this helps to explain what is going on a bit.
I will try to make sense of that and reply to the patch directly when I
succeeded.

As for the behavior on base_unit==0 in the get_state method,
as mentioned above I wrote that when I did not fully understood
how the controller works.
We really should never encounter this.
But if we do then I think closest to the truth would be:
state->period = UINT_MAX;
state->duty_cycle = 0;
I'd say state->period = 1 & state->duty_cycle = 0 is a better
representation.
But that would suggest the output is configured for an
infinitely high output frequency, but the frequency is
actually 0, the reason why get_state needs to treat a
base_unit val of 0 special at all is to avoid a division
by 0, and in math dividing by 0 gives infinite, isn't
UINT_MAX a better way to represent infinity ?

Hans
