The problem is that .get_state is called from the core without
requesting the pwm and so .request wasn't called before.

I still think it's wrong to cache the duty-cycle in the driver, but if
you still want to do it, .duty_cycle must go into the driver struct
which however is very inefficient given that probably most of the
machines don't actually have 255 PWMs.

Best regards
Uwe
