[PATCH] ARM: pxa: make pwm driver module_platform_driver

[Mike Dunn]

Commit 76abbdde2d95a3807d0dc6bf9f84d03d0dbd4f3d

    pwm: Add sysfs interface

causes a kernel oops due to a null pointer dereference on pxa platforms.  This
happens because the class added by the patch is registered in a subsys_initcall
(initcall4), but the pxa pwm driver is registered in arch_initcall (initcall3).
If the class is not registered before the driver probe function runs, the oops
occurs in device_add() when the uninitialized pointers in struct class are
dereferenced.  I don't see a reason that the driver must be an arch_initcall, so
this patch makes it a regular module_platform_driver (initcall6), preventing the
oops.
