Note that pwm_get_state() also has (IMHO) confusing semantics. It gives
you (most of the time) the state that was last pwm_state_apply()d and
not the state the hardware is currently in. In my book keeping the
pwm_state around is the nicer approach that often is also simpler ...

... which seems to apply here, too.
