Can you separate this by a blank line, please?

Using this kind of table isn't very common in device tree documentation
and the description above the table is a little vague. Maybe something
like this would be more explicit:
---[snip]---
Optionally, the pwm-specifier can encode a number of flags in a third
cell:
- bit 0: PWM signal polarity (0: normal polarity, 1: inverse polarity)

Can we rewrite this as:
if (args->args[2] & POLARITY_BIT)
pwm_set_polarity(pwm, PWM_POLARITY_INVERSED);
else
pwm_set_polarity(pwm, PWM_POLARITY_NORMAL);

I don't like the implicitness in this code. I think we should make this
more explicit for driver writers, so that if .of_xlate is set to NULL,
the default of_pwm_simple_xlate() is used. For all other cases we should
export of_pwm_xlate_with_flags(), so that the driver can explicitly set
the .of_xlate field to that function.
That will of course imply that the extra code that you added to
of_pwm_simple_xlate() is moved into a separate function.

This doesn't belong in a public header. It should be defined in the
core.c source file. Maybe rename it to something like PWM_SPEC_POLARITY
to make it more obvious that it defines a bit in the PWM specifier. You
can reduce the comment to a single line, because the second doesn't add
any additional information. Something like this:
/* flags in the third cell of the DT PWM specifier */
#define PWM_SPEC_POLARITY (1 << 0)
