See how the SiFive patch that I already pointed out solves this same
problem.

You should return -ERANGE or -EINVAL for the calls that cannot be
satisfied.

No. I only say that you should not configure the new period and duty
cycle if in the end the hardware should be disabled. Always disabling is
wrong, too.
