[PATCH] pwm: sunxi: wait for the READY bit

Most of the call sites in the kernel are not really prepared to handle
-EBUSY when calling pwm_config(). This means that they will either fail
silently or fail without letting the user retry at a later time.

This can be seen for example when using pwm-backlight (the most common use
case for this driver). It will first call pwm_config() with a 0 duty cycle
and disable the pwm. Then it will call pwm_config() that fails because the
pwm had no chance to update its period internally and
pwm_enable() ending up with a duty cycle of 0.

Instead, actually wait for the RDY bit to go low before continuing.
