First of all, Thierry suggested way of fixing this:
"Any objections to simply removing it and make all users use a workqueue
or some such if they need to control a PWM as a result of an interrupt
trigger?"
what is wrong with his approach?

Second, you are writing something that looks like mutex-try-lock...
which will fail the pwm_enable(). IMHO this *hides* the real issue and
does not solve anything (except hiding also the warning).

Best regards,
Krzysztof
