So, what is the problem this patch solves (or is trying to solve)?
Second, there are two important behavioural changes:
- error code change (it's visible to user space);
- an additional, quite a long by the way, timeout.

Second one does worry me a lot as it might add these 0.5s to the boot time
or so per PWM in question.
