There's no behavior change in this patch set. So my understanding is that you'd
like to change the current behavior independent of the CCF-related changes.

For the updated PWM block (at least for S905X3, not sure with which family Amlogic
extended the PWM block) we have an integrated option to achieve constant low/high
output. It's just not implemented yet, it's something I may do as next step.
The extended PWM block added new bits pwm_A/B_constant_en that prevent the default
increment of the hi/lo period. By supporting these bits we can achieve value 0
for hi/lo.
IMO that's easier than adding pinctrl handling. The remaining question would be
whether it's worth it to add pinctrl handling just for the legacy version of the
PWM block.
