Please show an example consumer of the pwm phandle to show how to set
the two properties required by the #pwm-cells.
Although the pwm-specifier typically encodes the chip-relative PWM
number and the PWM period in nanoseconds, it is technically controller
specific.

In fact, since the mtk-disp-pwm does not have a chip-relative PWM
number, could we in fact set #pwm-cells = <1>, and only specify the
requested PWM period?
