If I might ask - do you have i.MX hardware with PWMv1? If yes, I would
be grateful for testing (and provide proper patch), since I don't posses
one.

If we don't have HW to test the solution - why should we apply this
patch and introduce regression?



If you can provide (and test) fix for v1 - please prepare patch, so it
could be added on top of this patch series (as done with pwm polarity
inversion in this patch series).

And in that way also v2 would be affected.

My gut feeling now is that the "community" wants to solve too many
issues with PWM atomic support rework. 

Why cannot we add patches on top of already done work, but require
large patch series to be rewritten and resend ?
