The continuous mode of all PWM channels has been preliminarily tested
and verified working on the RK3576 IoT board.

I have tested with several typical period and duty cycle configurations.

Following Uwe's suggestion [0], I also tested with libpwm using commands
similar to the following:

./pwmset -c 0 -p 0 -P 1000000 -D 500000 -s 5000

I was previously unaware of the existence of libpwm. I will continue to 
follow its upstream development and updates going forward. :-)

Best regards,
Damon
