Subject: [PATCH v1] dt-bindings: pwm: describe the cells in #pwm-cells in pwm.yaml

From: Conor Dooley <[email protected]>

When commit 89650a1e3b6f ("dt-bindings: pwm: Convert PWM bindings
to json-schema") converted the pwm provider section of the text binding
to dt-schema it also updated all references to pwm.txt in pwm provider
bindings to pwm.yaml.

Most pwm provider bindings had a reference to pwm.txt as it contains a
description of what the cells in #pwm-cells are, albeit in the consumer
section of the document. Only information in the provider section of the
document was moved to the yaml binding, and it contains no information
about the cell format, making all references to it for the cell format
unhelpful.

Fixes: 89650a1e3b6f ("dt-bindings: pwm: Convert PWM bindings to json-schema")

I yoinked the wording from pwm.txt. Having "Typically" feels a bit
clumsy, but a given provider is free to override that order AFAIU.

All drivers that have 3 cells use that order, some drivers use less and
skip different values.

The patch looks fine, thanks. Will apply it after the merge window.

Thanks
