[PATCH v2 1/2] Revert "pwm: Set class for exported channels in sysfs"

[Fabrice Gasnier <fabrice.gasnier@st.com>]

This reverts commit 7e5d1fd75c3dde9fc10c4472b9368089d1b81d00 ("pwm: Set
class for exported channels in sysfs") as it causes regression with
multiple pwm chip[1], when exporting a pwm channel (echo X > export):

- ABI (Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-class-pwm) states pwmX should be
  created in /sys/class/pwm/pwmchipN/pwmX
- Reverted patch causes new entry to be also created directly in
  /sys/class/pwm/pwmX
- 1st time, exporting pwmX will create an entry in /sys/class/pwm/pwmX
- class attributes are added under pwmX folder, such as export, unexport
  npwm, symlinks. This is wrong as it belongs to pwmchipN. It may cause
  bad behavior and report wrong values.
- when another export happens on another pwmchip, it can't be created
  (e.g. -EEXIST). This is causing the issue with multiple pwmchip.

Example on stm32 (stm32429i-eval) platform:
$ ls /sys/class/pwm
pwmchip0 pwmchip4

$ cd /sys/class/pwm/pwmchip0/
$ echo 0 > export
$ ls /sys/class/pwm
pwm0 pwmchip0 pwmchip4

$ cd /sys/class/pwm/pwmchip4/
$ echo 0 > export
sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/class/pwm/pwm0'
...Exception stack follows...

This is also seen on other platform [2]
