[v2,0/3] PWM framework: add support referencing PWMs from ACPI

Message

As described in Documentation/firmware-guide/acpi/gpio-properties.rst a
GPIO can be referenced from ACPI ASL _DSD with the "gpios"-property of the
form:

  Package () { "gpios", Package () { ref, index, pin, active_low }}

The second patch of this series adds support for specifing a PWM
reference in ASL of the form

  Package () { "pwms", Package () { ref, index, pwm-period [, pwm flags]}}

The first patch of this series is necessary to resolve the "ref" in ASL
if the table has been loaded by efivar_ssdt_load() or configfs.

The third patch of this series makes leds-pwm use the ACPI-enabled
PWM framework.

v2:
- fixes by Pavel Machek and Dan Murphy
