Strange because with a #pwm-cells value of 3, of_pwm_xlate_with_flags()
would treat the flags as optional so the way you have put it looks
correct to me. I am not sure what the channel sub-nodes are supposed to
do, they do not appear to be documented properties or parsed by the PWM
core?

Is your Device Tree possibly corrupted here?
