I am not convinced that we actually need this.
Looking at the pwm core, .get_state() is only called right after .request(),
to initialize the cached value of the state. The core then uses the cached
value throughout, it'll never read out the h/w again, until the next .request().
In our case, we know that the state right after request is always disabled,
because:
- we disable all pwm channels on probe (in PATCH v5 4/7)
- .free() disables the pwm channel
Conclusion: .get_state() will always return "pwm disabled", so why do we
bother reading out the h/w?
Of course, if we choose to leave the pwm enabled after .free(), then
.get_state() can even be left out! Do we want that? Genuine question, I do
not know the answer.
