Following commitcfc4c189bc("pwm: Read initial hardware state at request time") the Rockchip PWM driver can no longer assume a device's pwm_state structure has been populated after a call to pwmchip_add(). Consequently, the test in rockchip_pwm_probe() intended to prevent the driver from stopping PWM devices already enabled by the bootloader no longer functions reliably and this can lead to the kernel hanging during startup, particularly on devices like the Pinebook Pro that use a PWM-controlled backlight for their display. Avoid this by querying the device directly at probe time to determine whether or not it is enabled.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
