Hum, maybe my wording was wrong. What I meant is that when that
disabling the PWM channel by using the PWM_DIS
 register, the PWM is not driving the pin anymore. Then, the level goes
from low (which is correct) to high. Also, the datasheet specifies that
the pwm has to be enabled to get the correct level when duty == 0 or
duty == period.

IIRC, this is not the same on TI SoC where duty == 0 don't give you the
expected behavior and I can understand why there is a pwm_disable()
there. Maybe we have to have a way to differentiate both cases ?
