[PATCH v2] pwm: Zero-initialize the pwm_state passed to driver's .get_state()

["Uwe Kleine-König" <u.kleine-koenig@pengutronix.de>]

This is just to ensure that .usage_power is properly initialized and
doesn't contain random stack data. The other members of struct pwm_state
should get a value assigned in a successful call to .get_state(). So in
the absence of bugs in driver implementations, this is only a safe-guard
and no fix.

Hello,

I found a few more locations where .get_state() is called without
zero-initializing *state.

Best regards
Uwe
