[PATCH v5 13/23] pwm: Probe PWM chip devices on demand

When looking up a PWM chip through its OF node, probe it if it hasn't
already.
The goal is to reduce deferred probes to a minimum, as it makes it very
cumbersome to find out why a device failed to probe, and can introduce
very big delays in when a critical device is probed.
