The PWM core checks for valid PWM devices and will return an error if
you pass in an invalid device. What this is completely missing is any
kind of error checking. But perhaps you don't care about failure here
for this particular platform? It would be useful to debug issues with
black screens and such I can imagine.

Also, though it's admittedly somewhat underdocumented, the typical
sequence of calls should be pwm_config() followed by pwm_enable(). The
reason is that some devices don't support being configured while
enabled. But you may not care about this here since you're always
dealing with a fixed device anyway.
