I've been thinking about if this mutex can be removed. It's name suggest that
it was originally used to protect the device list, which is now gone.
Currently the it protects against races between pwm_request_by_name,
pwm_release and pwm_device_unregister.
But the same thing can be accomplished by using FLAG_REQUESTED, with some minor
adjustments in pwm_release and by marking the device as requested in
pwm_device_unregister.
The later will also have the benefit of that it is not possible to request the
device anymore after it has been removed through an kept open sysfs file.

class_find_device only returns either NULL or a pointer.

class_find_device gets a reference to the device, which has to be dropped in
the error path: put_device(d);

__pwm_request_byname is only used by pwm_request_byname, i think it can be
merged down.

This looks a bit strange. If it is exported it will always be named "sysfs".

_vargs is usualy used for functions which take a va_list. pwm_register_fmt
would be a better name here I guess.

I think a PWM_ prefix for the flags would be good.
