Holding the spin-lock for all of the code in meson_pwm_apply() can
result in a "BUG: scheduling while atomic". This can happen because
clk_get_rate() (which is called from meson_pwm_calc()) may sleep.
Only hold the spin-lock when modifying registers to solve this.
The reason why we need a spin-lock in the driver is because the
REG_MISC_AB register is shared between the two channels provided by one
PWM controller. The only functions where REG_MISC_AB is modified are
meson_pwm_enable() and meson_pwm_disable() so the register reads/writes
in there need to be protected by the spin-lock.
The original code also used the spin-lock to protect the values in
struct meson_pwm_channel. This could be necessary if two consumers can
use the same PWM channel. However, PWM core doesn't allow this so we
don't need to protect the values in struct meson_pwm_channel with a
lock.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
