[PATCH v3 6/6] hwmon: pwm-fan: Update the duty cycle inorder to control the pwm-fan

In order to disable the PWM we need to update using following sequence.

	pwm_config(pwm, 0, period);
 	pwm_disable(pwm);

pwm_config() with a zero duty cycle to make it clear the timer and update the PWM registers.
pwm_disable will clear the TCON_AUTORELOAD(tcon_chan) and update the PWM register.

Next change in state will get trigger unless a new PWM cycle happened.

	pwm_config(pwm, duty, period);
 	pwm_enable(pwm);

Through pwm_config we update the duty cycle and period and update the PWM register.
pwm_enable will update the state to TCON_MANUALUPDATE(tcon_chan)
and TCON_START(tcon_chan) | TCON_AUTORELOAD(tcon_chan) and update the PWM register.
