My compiler (correctly) yelled that `ret` is returned uninitialized if
`state->enabled` is false. I initialized `ret` to 0 and the problem
went away. I assume that the patch will need to spin to fix that
unless everything else looks great and a maintainer wants to fix that
when applying.

With that fix, I was able to use Bjorn's patch along with Satya's
patches adding pm8350c support (removing the now defunct
"pwm_9bit_mask" property) to make the PWM on my board work. Thus, once
the error my compiler complained about is fixed I'm happy with my
`Tested-by` being added.

For now I haven't actually reviewed the code here, but if folks feel
like it needs an extra pair of eyes then please yell and I'll find
some time to do it.
