Now that the JZ4740 and similar SoCs have a pinctrl driver, we rely on the pins being properly configured before the driver probes. One inherent problem of this new approach is that the pinctrl framework does not allow us to configure each pin on demand, when the various PWM channels are requested or released. For instance, the PWM channels can be configured from sysfs, which would require all PWM pins to be configured properly beforehand for the PWM function, eventually causing conflicts with other platform or board drivers. The proper solution here would be to modify the pwm-jz4740 driver to handle only one PWM channel, and create an instance of this driver for each one of the 8 PWM channels. Then, it could use the pinctrl framework to dynamically configure the PWM pin it controls. Until this can be done, the only jz4740 board supported upstream (Qi lb60) can configure all of its connected PWM pins in PWM function mode, since those are not used by other drivers nor by GPIOs on the board.

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
