If this BUG_ON (or your if) triggers we have a compiler or memory
problem. The relevant parts of the code are:

	if (state->period > (0xffff << 3) * 1000)
		period = (0xffff << 3) * 1000;
	else
		period = state->period;

	period /= 1000;

	if (period > 0xffff) {
		pwmc0 = ilog2(period >> 16);
		BUG_ON(pwmc0 > 3);

Given that period is never bigger than 0xffff << 3 when it is used to
calculate the argument to ilog2, pwmc0 <= ilog2(7) = 2.

Hmm, I wonder if the formula is wrong given that pwmc0 never becomes 3?!
Should this better be

	pwmc0 = fls(period >> 16);

?

Best regards
Uwe
