Good question. If Sascha is able to come up with the patch to introduce
the generic layer, I think it would be good to have it go though him.

Otherwise I guess I can carry it, but I'd start a new tree for
drivers/{misc,char} then and put it in there, along with patches to
move the other pwm drivers.
