[PATCH v2] pwm: mediatek: Fix duty and period setting

The period generated by the hardware is

	(PWMDWIDTH + 1) << CLKDIV) / freq

according to my tests with a signal analyser and also the documentation.

The current algorithm doesn't consider the `+ 1` part and so configures
slightly too high periods. The same issue exists for the duty cycle
setting. So subtract 1 from both the register values for period and
duty cycle. If period is 0, bail out, if duty_cycle is 0, just disable
the PWM which results in a constant low output.

Note that clk handling is dropped from pwm_mediatek_{en,dis}able to
handle duty_cycle = 0, so the calls in pwm_mediatek_apply() have to be
modified to do clk handling, too.

Fixes: caf065f8fd58 ("pwm: Add MediaTek PWM support")

Hello,

changes since (implicit) v1,
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pwm/20250710163705.2095418-2-u.kleine-koenig@baylibre.com/:

 - Drop superflous parenthesis from commit log
 - To implement drop the enable register instead of bit 15 in the CON
   register, adapt commit log accordingly.

Best regards
Uwe
