Well, regarding the imx_pwm_apply_v2() suggested by Stefan, I think we
both agreed that most of the code was unneeded when all we want to do
is disable the PWM.

My concern was more about the way PWM changes are applied (->apply()
returns before the change is actually applied), but I agreed that it
could be fixed later on (if other people think it's really needed),
since the existing code already handles it this way.

The patch proposed by Stefan is addressing a different problem: the
periph clock has to be enabled before accessing registers.

Stefan already provided a patch, I just think it should be fixed before
patch 2 to avoid breaking bisectibility.

Well, the description made by Stefan seemed pretty clear to me: you
need to enable the periph clock before accessing PWM registers.

You can ask others to test your own patches. In this case, just
clearly state that the patch is untested and that you'd like people
owning a specific platform to test it.
