You write "some devices". Which do you have in mind?

adapting the sysfs stuff should be done in a separate step.

Indention is broken here. Please align to the opening (.

I don't understand the semantics here. (i.e. how does a given
pwm_output_pattern map to the intended wave form?)

Who is the owner of the data behind this pointer? Is it expected to be
valid only until the next call to change the output? What happens if the
caller modifies the data returned?

This doesn't match the atomic approach that we're following since the
introduction of .apply. Please don't add new non-atomic callbacks.

I don't like this "advertising" for specific functions. I'd prefer to
handle this in .apply(), fix all drivers to return -ESOMETHING when the
request cannot be fulfilled.
Having said that I wonder if this output pattern is a common enough
property to add support for it in the PWM framework.
If the only usage is to drive a LED this might maybe better be a
dedicated LED driver? (Though I'm not sure this is a good idea either.)
Best regards
