[PATCH 01/14] pwm: Add new helpers to create/manipulate PWM states

[Boris Brezillon]

The pwm_prepare_new_state() helper prepares a new state object
containing the current PWM state except for the polarity and period
fields which are set to the reference values.
This is particurly useful for PWM users who want to apply a new
duty-cycle expressed relatively to the reference period without
changing the enable state.

The PWM framework expect PWM users to configure the duty cycle in
nanosecond, but most users just want to express this duty cycle
relatively to the period value (i.e. duty_cycle = 33% of the period).
Add pwm_{get,set}_relative_duty_cycle() helpers to ease this kind of
conversion.
