It would be easy to drop the hard dependency on OF. Please do that.
Given that that part doesn't seem to be available for individual sale, I
suggest to add something like:
depends on (ARM64 && ARCH_ROCKCHIP) || COMPILE_TEST
to not annoy people configuring a kernel for x86 or s390.

How is that different from a PWM that is an ordinary I2C device? If
there is no difference, I'd just call this "an I2C device". Also "can
output a PWM signal" is a given for PWM drivers :-)

Is there a publicly available datasheet? I guess not. (I ask because
adding a link there to such a document would be nice.)

Don't introduce such a macro if you only use it once. Having the
division in the function results in code that is easier to read (IMHO).

You're supposed to configure the biggest possible period not bigger than
the requested period. So this should be:
/*
* The period is configured using a 16 bit wide register holding
* the frequency in Hz.
*/
unsigned int period = min_t(u64, state->period, NSEC_PER_SEC);
unsigned int freq = DIV_ROUND_UP(NSEC_PER_SEC, period);
if (freq > U16_MAX)
return -EINVAL;

This is wrong for two reasons:
- It uses rounding to the nearest duty_cycle, however you're supposed
to round down.
- It uses the requested period instead of the real one.
I wonder why the hardware doesn't use the whole 8 bits here.

If you use the guard helper, you don't need to resort to goto for error
handling.

Please document how the hardware behaves here in a "Limitations" section
as several other drivers do. Questions to answer include: Does it
complete a period when the parameters are updated? Can it happen that a
glitch is emitted while MULE_PWM_FREQ_[LH]_REG is updated but
MULE_PWM_DCY_REG isn't yet? Maybe updating MULE_PWM_FREQ_[LH]_REG isn't
even atomic? "Doesn't support disabling, configures duty_cycle=0 when
disabled is requested."
Maybe write all three registers in a bulk write, then you might even be
able to drop the lock.
Also please fail silently.

Is .get_state not possible to implement (then please document that with a reason)?

Error message if this fails, please.
