Looking at all of this it seems like this would be more appropriately
implemented as a force-feedback input device directly. The only reason
you seem to be making this a PWM driver is so that it can be used in
conjunction with pwm-vibrator. The device itself doesn't seem to be a
generic PWM in the way that the PWM framework expects it.
