I did quick grep for the pinctrl_pm_select_* functions in the code tree 
and found usage of these APIs in some of the places.
I am taking the reference of i2c-st, i2c-nomadic and 
extcon/extcon-usb-gpio.c drivers and from this the interpretation is

default state: When interface active and transfer need to be done in IO 
interface.
idle state: Active state of the system but interface is not active, put 
in non-active state of the interface.
sleep state: When system entering into suspend and IO interface is going 
to be inactive.

So in PWM case, we will need the "default" and "sleep" state.

In suspend(), set the "sleep" state and in resume, set the "default" state.

+ Linus W as I refereed his st/nomadik driver for reference.
