pwm: mxs: Don't modify HW state in .probe() after the PWM chip was registered
This fixes a race condition: After pwmchip_add() is called there might already be a consumer and then modifying the hardware behind the consumer's back is bad. So reset before calling pwmchip_add(). Note that reseting the hardware isn't the right thing to do if the PWM is already running as it might e.g. disable (or even enable) a backlight that is supposed to be on (or off).
