Hello,
I've just tested your driver and it works flawlessly on the 
BeagleV-Ahead with the last mainline kernel. However, I had to modify 
some portion of the code to comply with the last kernel needs.

Since commit 384461abcab6, the owner of a pwm_ops structure is implicit 
and so, you can (must) remove this last line now.

					     BIT(i) ?
If the bootloader starts a PWM channel for some reason, it will not be 
referenced by the PM usage counter, I added this line in the if 
statement to counter this problem :
		pm_runtime_get(&pdev->dev);

Thank you for your work. With the above comments addressed:

Do you plan to send out a new iteration of this patch soon ?

Best regards,
