[ Upstream commit 181f4d2f44463fe09fe4df02e03095cb87151c29 ] According to the data-sheet the way the PWM controller works is that each input clock-cycle the base_unit gets added to a N bit counter and that counter overflowing determines the PWM output frequency. So assuming e.g. a 16 bit counter this means that if base_unit is set to 1, after 65535 input clock-cycles the counter has been increased from 0 to 65535 and it will overflow on the next cycle, so it will overflow after every 65536 clock cycles and thus the calculations done in pwm_lpss_prepare() should use 65536 and not 65535. This commit fixes this. Note this also aligns the calculations in pwm_lpss_prepare() with those in pwm_lpss_get_state(). Note this effectively reverts commit 684309e5043e ("pwm: lpss: Avoid potential overflow of base_unit"). The next patch in this series really fixes the potential overflow of the base_unit value.

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.
