Because period and duty cycle are defined in the PWM framework structs as ints
with units of nanoseconds, the maximum time duration that can be set is limited
to ~2.147 seconds. Consequently, applications desiring to set greater time
periods via the PWM framework are not be able to do so - like, for instance,
causing an LED to blink at an interval of 5 seconds.

Redefining the period and duty cycle struct members in the core PWM framework
structs as u64 values will enable larger time durations to be set and solve
this problem. Such a change to the framework mandates that drivers using these
struct members (and corresponding helper functions) also be modified correctly
in order to prevent compilation errors.

This patch series introduces the changes to all the drivers first, followed by
the framework change at the very end so that when the latter is applied, all
the drivers are in good shape and there are no compilation errors.

Changes from v8:
  - Gathered all received "Acked-by: " and "Reviewed-by: " tags
  - Dropped patch to clk-pwm.c for reasons mentiond in [2]
  - Expanded audience of unreviewed patches

Changes from v7:
  - Changed commit messages of all patches to be brief and to the point.
  - Added explanation of change in cover letter.
  - Dropped change to pwm-sti.c as upon review it was unnecessary as struct
    pwm_capture is not being modified in the PWM core.

Changes from v6:
  - Split out the driver changes out into separate patches, one patch per file
    for ease of reviewing.

Changes from v5:
  - Dropped the conversion of struct pwm_capture to u64 for reasons mentioned
    in https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-pwm/msg11541.html

Changes from v4:
  - Split the patch into two: one for changes to the drivers, and the actual
    switch to u64 for ease of reverting should the need arise.
  - Re-examined the patch and made the following corrections:
      * intel_panel.c:
	DIV64_U64_ROUND_UP -> DIV_ROUND_UP_ULL (as only the numerator would be
	64-bit in this case).
      * pwm-sti.c:
	do_div -> div_u64 (do_div is optimized only for x86 architectures, and
	div_u64's comment block suggests to use this as much as possible).

Changes from v3:
  - Rebased to current tip of for-next.

Changes from v2:
  - Fixed %u -> %llu in a dev_dbg in pwm-stm32-lp.c, thanks to kbuild test robot
  - Added a couple of fixes to pwm-imx-tpm.c and pwm-sifive.c

Changes from v1:
  - Fixed compilation errors seen when compiling for different archs.

v1:
  - Reworked the change pushed upstream earlier [1] so as to not add an
    extension to an obsolete API. With this change, pwm_ops->apply() can be
    used to set pwm_state parameters as usual.
