#1421691 — [PATCH v3 01/14] pwm: Add an helper to prepare a new PWM state

The pwm_init_state() helper prepares a new state object containing the
current PWM state except for the polarity and period fields which are
set to the reference values (those in pwm_args).
This is particularly useful for PWM users who want to apply a new
duty-cycle expressed relatively to the reference period without
changing the enable state.
