The current implementation always round down the duty and period
values, while it would be better to round them to the closest integer.
These changes are needed in preparation of atomic update support to
prevent a period/duty cycle drift when executing several time the
'pwm_get_state() / modify / pwm_apply_state()' sequence.
Say you have an expected period of 3.333 us and a clk rate of
112.666667 MHz -- the clock frequency doesn't divide evenly,
so the period (stashed in nanoseconds) shrinks when we convert to
the register value and back, as follows:
pwm_apply_state(): register = period * 112666667 / 1000000000;
pwm_get_state(): period = register * 1000000000 / 112666667;
or in other words:
period = period * 112666667 / 1000000000 * 1000000000 / 112666667;
which yields a sequence like:
3333 -> 3328
3328 -> 3319
3319 -> 3310
3310 -> 3301
3301 -> 3292
3292 -> ... (etc) ...
With this patch, we'd see instead:
period = div_round_closest(period * 112666667, 1000000000) *
1000000000 / 112666667;
which yields a stable sequence:
3333 -> 3337
3337 -> 3337
3337 -> ... (etc) ...
