Hi Sjoerd,
> When disabling the samsung PWM the output state remains at the level
> it was in the end of a pwm cycle. In other words, calling pwm_disable
> when at 100% duty will keep the output active, while at all other
> setting the output will go/stay inactive. On top of that the samsung
> PWM settings are double-buffered, which means the new settings only
> get applied at the start of a new PWM cycle.
>
> This results in a race if the PWM is at 100% duty and a driver calls:
> pwm_config (pwm, 0, period);
> pwm_disable (pwm);
>
> In this case the PWMs output will unexpectedly stay active, unless a
> new PWM cycle happened to start between the register writes in
> _config and _disable. As far as i can tell this is a regression
> introduced by 3bdf878, before that a call to pwm_config would call
> pwm_samsung_enable which, while heavy-handed, made sure the expected
> settings were live.
>
> To resolve this, while not re-introducing the issues 3bdf878
> (flickering as the PWM got reset while in a PWM cycle). Only force an
> update of the settings when at 100% duty, which shouldn't have a
> noticeable effect on the output but is enough to ensure the behaviour
> is as expected on disable.
