Please indent the follow up line to the opening parenthesis.

Can it happen, that pinctrl_pins_pwm is PTR_ERR(-EPROBE_DEFER)?
Maybe you only want to ignore PTR_ERR(-ENODEV) and for example propagate
-EIO? I think you want to put the gpio if the failure is because there
is a pinctrl related error.

ISTR that there was a patch that implements get_state for imx. Is there
a dependency on that one? Otherwise the state returned by
pwm_get_state() might not be what is actually configured.
Do you know if this is required for the old i.MX pwm, e.g. on i.MX21?
I ask because of https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/1000071/
Best regards
