pwm: Ensure that pwm_chips are allocated using pwmchip_alloc()
Memory holding a struct device must not be freed before the reference
count drops to zero. So a struct pwm_chip must not live in memory
freed by a driver on unbind. All in-tree drivers were fixed accordingly,
but as out-of-tree drivers, that were not adapted, still compile fine,
catch these in pwmchip_add().
