This function allocates a struct pwm_chip and driver data. Compared to the status quo the split into pwm_chip and driver data is new, otherwise it doesn't change anything relevant (yet). The intention is that after all drivers are switched to use this allocation function, its possible to add a struct device to struct pwm_chip to properly track the latter's lifetime without touching all drivers again. Proper lifetime tracking is a necessary precondition to introduce character device support for PWMs (that implements atomic setting and doesn't suffer from the sysfs overhead of the /sys/class/pwm userspace support). The new function pwmchip_priv() (obviously?) only works for chips allocated with pwmchip_alloc().
