^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ this is called from
pwm_backlight_power_on() from pwm_bl probe function
The problem here is not the lack of ->apply() callback, but the requirement to
perform software reset on the pwm_v2 fifo when the pwm_v2 is NOT enabled (state->enabled: 0).
As fair as I can see the pwm_state has following members: period, duty cycle, polarity and enabled.
I'm fine to implement ->apply() callback, which would change above values.
However, there is a problem with ->config() (imx_pwm_config_v2 @ pwm-imx.c) and imx pwm_v2 software
FIFO reset.
We can set polarity in any other kernel subsystem, which uses PWM (backlight in this example) and
then this setting would disappear when we call pwm_apply_state with state->enabled = 0 (as presented
in the log). This imposes setting polarity at ->config when we enable the PWM (as this patch does).

I do agree that it shouldn't. Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems like an
PWM HW requirement to perform the reset.

The "atomic"[*] code (with ->apply() provided) will not solve this issue.

Could you be more specific here?
As I mentioned before, the problem is not with the lack of
"atomic" API.
For me the problem is with other subsystems (like pwm backlight)
which do require polarity inversion to work properly.

We can set polarity properly with this patch. The only thing which needs fixing
and another revision of the patch) is the removal of condition:
- if (polarity == pwm->args.polarity)
- return 0;
at imx_pwm_set_polarity() function.

We do need to configure polarity according to DT value during the pwm
config_v2 configuration after PWM IP software reset.

The atomicity[*]:
- It seems to me that this "atomicity" is just embracing all the ->enable, ->disable
and ->set_polarity in one -> apply callback. Is this just conceptual clean up or is
there any other reason for it (I'm just curious) ?
