While I tend to agree that the checks about period and duty_cycle are
(somewhat) irrelevant if enabled == false, I fear we'd break assumptions
here as some drivers configure duty_cycle/period in hardware even with
.enabled == false, and so proably rely on period > 0 and duty_cycle <=
period.

Another approach would be to skip pwm_apply_state() in
pwm_class_suspend() if the state is already disabled. That one sounds
safer.

Best regards
Uwe
