Subject: [PATCH 1/2] pwm: berlin: Don't use broken prescaler values

Six of the eight prescaler values available for Berlin PWM are not true
prescalers but rather internal shifts that throw away the high bits of
TCNT. Currently, we attempt to use those high bits, leading to erratic
behavior. Restrict the prescaler configurations we select to only the
two that respect the full range of TCNT.

Tested on BG2CD.

+ * The prescaler claims to support 8 different moduli, configured using the
+ * low three bits of PWM_CONTROL. (Sequentially, they are 1, 4, 8, 16, 64,
+ * 256, 1024, and 4096.)  However, the moduli from 4 to 1024 appear to be
+ * implemented by internally shifting TCNT left without adding additional
+ * bits. So, the max TCNT that actually works for a modulus of 4 is 0x3fff;
+ * for 8, 0x1fff; and so on. This means that those moduli are entirely
+ * useless, as we could just do the shift ourselves. The 4096 modulus is
+ * implemented with a real prescaler, so we do use that, but we treat it
+ * as a flag instead of pretending the modulus is actually configurable.
