Technically there's now a race between the pwm_is_enabled() and
pwm->state.enabled = true; statements, but as discussed in the cover
letter I think that's fine because of the assumptions about concurrent
usage of PWMs.

The most important check (PWMF_REQUESTED) is still atomic, so it is
still up to drivers to properly lock concurrent access to a PWM device
and the core will make sure that a device can only be requested once.
