Subject: [PATCH 0/2 v2] pwm: add support for duty_offset

This series extends the PWM subsystem to support the duty_offset feature
found on some PWM devices. It includes a patch to enable this feature
for the axi-pwmgen driver, which can also serve as an example of how to
implement it for other devices.

The series was tested on actual hardware using a Zedboard. An
oscilloscope was used to validate that the generated PWM signals matched
the requested ones. The libpwm [1] tool was also used for testing the
char device functionality.

Note that in addition to the other patches in this series, the changes
to the axi-pwmgen driver rely on [2] and [3], which haven't been picked
up yet.

v2 changes:
* Address feedback for driver in v1:
  * Remove supports_offset flag in pwm_chip struct, and references to it
    in the axi-pwmgen driver patch
  * Drop pwm_config_full patch entirely
  * Don't return EINVAL when state->duty_offset + state->duty_cycle >
    state->period in __pwm_apply(), since this is valid as long as
    neither is greater than state->period on its own
  * Add a check to disallow setting the PWM signal as inverse and a
    nonzero duty_offset at the same time in __pwm_apply(), with a
    comment explaining why
