The last else branch is even wrong, isn't it? .apply() can for a greater
than 50% relative duty cycle well have lo < hi, right? So this is not a
mere optimisation but a fix?!

Note that meson_pwm_calc() has a similar construct that can be
simplified in a similar way. All three variants have

	channel->pre_div = pre_div;

and the last else branch is universal and can replace the others.

Another issue I just spotted is that

	duty = state->duty_cycle

is wrong for state->duty_cycle > UINT_MAX. (Ditto the assignment to
period.) Making both duty and period u64 shoudl fix that. After that
duty_cnt > 0xffff cannot happen as the core ensures that duty_cycle <=
period.

Having said that, the proposed change here is an improvement, so:

I also suggest to add a Fixes line, i.e.

Fixes: c375bcbaabdb ("pwm: meson: Read the full hardware state in meson_pwm_get_state()")

Best regards
Uwe
