All the current rk3066 based boards use pwm modulate vdd_logic
voltage, the board may hang when the system boot and run to a higher
frequency without pwm enabled, so enable it as builtin.

Some platform like Rockchip rk3066 use pwm as a regulator to modulate
cpu voltage, so pwm regulator should be enabled at system boot time if
the system want to run with high frequency.

This really belongs in patch 1/2. But then the same comments hold true
and I think you'll need to come up with a proper fix that prevents the
switch to a higher frequency if don't have the necessary regulator, or
make the Kconfig symbol bool if all else fails.

If you make the Kconfig symbol bool I'd expect a really good explanation
in the commit message as to why it can't be fixed properly.

I don't understand the rationale here. Surely if the system can't safely
switch to a higher frequency because the regulator isn't available, then
it should be prevented from switching, shouldn't it?

Making this change alone will not prevent users from switching this back
to =m on their own. So either you need to add code to prevent a switch
to an unsupported frequency in the absence of the regulator, or you need
to change the PWM_ROCKCHIP Kconfig option to be bool instead, though the
latter is of course a somewhat ugly hack, whereas the former would be a
proper fix.
