You'd never request duty == 0, would you?

Your duty must always be in the inclusive range [1, period]
(hardware values, not ns). A duty of 0 is a hardware fault
(on the jz4740 it is).

If you request duty == 1 (the minimum), then the new duty is equal
to (period - 1 + 1) == period, which is the maximum of your range.

If you request duty == period (the maximum), then the new duty
calculated is equal to (period - period + 1) == 1, which is the
minimum of your range.

To move it below the comment that explains why we use 'period - duty + 
1'.

We modify that line anyway, so it's not like it makes the patch much 
more
verbose.

The pin stay inactive when the PWM is disabled, but the level of the
inactive state depends on the polarity of the pin. So we need to switch
the polarity only when the PWM is enabled.
