If you like at the datasheet / read my commit description then it
becomes obvious that because of the way the PWM controller works that
it takes the full 2^(base-unit-bits) for the counter to overflow,
not 2^(base-unit-bits) - 1. This will make a difference of a factor
65535/65536 in the output frequency which will be tricky to measure.

IOW I'm not sure we can really test if this helps, but it is
obviously the right thing to do and it aligns the pwm_apply code
with the pwm_get_state code which already does not have the - 1.

Regards,

Hans
