Hi Brian,
Thanks for the info, I'm new to this process.

I was asked to create a FIXUP CL and send it upstream.  Not knowing format of a "FIXUP" cl, I looked at other FIXUP cl's in the chromeos kernel and followed suit.  
I emailed it upstream with a "FIXUP: CHROMIUM:" prefix. Should I change the checkin comment title line to "[PATCH] pwm: cros-ec: fix transposed param settings" and resend the email?
Please advise, thanks.

Hi Nick,

When sending patches to kernel mailing lists, we don't use prefixes like
"CHROMIUM" -- those only apply to Chrome OS kernel trees, to indicate
patches that should be specific to the Chromium (OS) project and not
necessarily upstream Linux.

Here, you want to follow the patterns used by the subsystem. This is
sort of covered in the Documentation/process/ directory:

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/submitting-patches.html#the-canonical-patch-format

Or you might look at 'git log drivers/pwm/ here.

i.e., this might have a subject:

[PATCH] pwm: cros-ec: fix transposed param settings

Patch looks good:
