pwm: dt: Fix description of second PWM cell
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The second cell in the PWM specifier denotes the period in nanoseconds,
not the duty cycle. The latter can be freely configured at runtime and
a PWM with a fixed duty cycle would be rather pointless.
