Subject: [PATCH] pwm: imx27: workaround of the pwm output bug when decrease the duty cycle
This is a limited workaround for the PWM IP issue.
Root cause:
When the SAR FIFO is empty, the new write value will be directly applied
to SAR even the current period is not over.
If the new SAR value is less than the old one, and the counter is
greater than the new SAR value, the current period will not filp the
level. This will result in a pulse with a duty cycle of 100%.
Workaround:
Add an old value SAR write before updating the new duty cycle to SAR.
This will keep the new value is always in a not empty fifo, and can be wait
to update after a period finished.
Limitation:
This workaround can only solve this issue when the PWM period is longer than
2us(or <500KHz).
