Or call the field "base_unit_bits" which holds 16 for BSW/BYT and 22 for
BXT, and calculate both scaler and mask from that in pwm_lpss_config()?

Actually I think we should make the driver private structure look like
this:

struct pwm_lpss_chip {
        struct pwm_chip chip;
        void __iomem *regs;
        const struct pwm_lpss_boardinfo *info;
};

and then set ->info to point to the platform data in probe().

pwm_lpss_config() can then refer lpwm->info->base_unit_bits and
lpwm->info->clk_rate.

Nobody outside Intel should have Broxtons yet so it should not break any
existing users.
