Yes.

Yes, as you explained. But the warning is shown.

if (state->enabled && state->duty_cycle < s2.duty_cycle)
	dev_warn(pwmchip_parent(chip),
		".apply is supposed to round down duty_cycle (requested: %llu/%llu, applied: %llu/%llu)\n",
		state->duty_cycle, state->period,
		s2.duty_cycle, s2.period);

state has previously applied settings and is parameter of pwm_apply_debug,
in that case s2=s1, and s1 is returned by get_state:

state->enabled=true
state->duty_cycle=0
s2.enabled=false
s2.duty_cycle=1908

Due to the code the warning should be raised. If it shouldn't the check
should be different, something like if (state->enabled && s2.enabled &&
...)
