ChromeOS EC has no separated "enabled" state, it sees `duty == 0` as
"disabled"[1].  1db37f9561b2 ("pwm: cros-ec: Cache duty cycle value")
caches the value in kernel side so that it can retrieve the original duty
value even if (struct pwm_state *)->enabled is false.

To make sure I understand, did you mean the original duty value could be less
important because:
- We are less caring as it is in a debug context at [2]?
- At [3], the PWM device is still initializing.
