pwm: Improve args checking in pwm_apply_state()
It seems like in the process of refactoring pwm_config() to utilize the newly-introduced pwm_apply_state() API, some args/bounds checking was dropped. In particular, I noted that we are now allowing invalid period selections, e.g.: # echo 1 > /sys/class/pwm/pwmchip0/export # cat /sys/class/pwm/pwmchip0/pwm1/period 100 # echo 101 > /sys/class/pwm/pwmchip0/pwm1/duty_cycle [... driver may or may not reject the value, or trigger some logic bug ...] It's better to see: # echo 1 > /sys/class/pwm/pwmchip0/export # cat /sys/class/pwm/pwmchip0/pwm1/period 100 # echo 101 > /sys/class/pwm/pwmchip0/pwm1/duty_cycle -bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument This patch reintroduces some bounds checks in both pwm_config() (for its signed parameters; we don't want to convert negative values into large unsigned values) and in pwm_apply_state() (which fix the above described behavior, as well as other potential API misuses).
