[PATCHv6 2/3] pwm: make the PWM_POLARITY flag in DTB optional

Change the pwm chip driver registration, so that a chip driver that
supports polarity inversion can still be used with DTBs that don't
provide the 'PWM_POLARITY' flag.

This is done to provide polarity inversion support for the pwm-imx
driver without having to modify all existing DTS files.
