Subject: [PATCH v8 7/8] pwm: pca9685: Restrict period change for enabled PWMs

Previously, the last used PWM channel could change the global prescale
setting, even if other channels are already in use.

Fix it by only allowing the first enabled PWM to change the global
chip-wide prescale setting. If there is more than one channel in use,
the prescale settings resulting from the chosen periods must match.

GPIOs do not count as enabled PWMs as they are not using the prescaler
and can't change it.

Changes since v7:
- As the HW readout always returns enabled, also set the pwms_enabled
bit in request (except for the "all LEDs" channel)

Changes since v6:
- Only allow the first PWM that is enabled to change the prescaler, not
the first one that uses the prescaler

I think this patch could be a tad simpler (by just counting the number
of enabled channels instead of maintaining a bitmap). Still this is
beneficial, so:
