When disabling the Samsung PWM the output state remains at the level it
was at the end of a PWM cycle. In other words, calling pwm_disable()
when at 100% duty cycle will keep the output active, while at all other
settings 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 cycle 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 pwm_config()
and pwm_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) fixed, only force an update
of the settings when at 100% duty cycle, which shouldn't have any
noticeable effect on the output but is enough to ensure the behaviour is
as expected on disable.
