That is one option. Or another option would be to have another node that
"adapts" a clk signal to a pwm provider. Similar to how we adapt a gpio
to make a clk gate or mux. Something like:

gcc: clock-controller@f00d {
reg = <0xf00d 0xd00d>;
#clock-cells = <1>;
};


pwm {
compatible = "pwm-clk";
#pwm-cells = <0>;
clocks = <&gcc 45>;
assigned-clocks = <&gcc 45>;
assigned-clock-rates = <1400000>;
};

And then the pwm-clk driver would adjust the duty cycle to generate a
pwm.
