Subject: [PATCH v2] PWM: atmel-pwm: use request/free instead of enable/disable

I found that disabling a pwm while it is at a low level will actually put it
back at a high level. The main symptom is that leds-pwm is calling pwm_disable()
after setting the duty cycle to 0. Hence, instead of getting a switched off LED,
you get an LED lit up at full brightness.

Solve that by using the request and free callbacks to enable and disable the
pwm channels and the clock.

Applies on [PATCH v5] PWM: atmel-pwm: add PWM controller driver

Changes in v2:
  - add dummies pwm_enable and pwm_disable to be able to register the pwm chip.
