pwm: Document that the pinstate of a disabled PWM isn't reliable

Some (most?) drivers emit the inactive state when the PWM is disabled.
However there are exceptions, so document that a consumer better doesn't
depend on this behaviour.

Some known exceptions:

  - imx27 emits 0 independent of the configured polarity
  - mxs just drives the output to the last emitted state.
  - iqs620a makes the output tristated on disable, so an external
    pull-down would be required.

 This API controls both the PWM period/duty_cycle config and the

+As a consumer, don't rely on the output's state for a disabled PWM. If it's
+easily possible, drivers are supposed to emit the inactive state, but some

 There is also a usage_power setting: If set, the PWM driver is only required to
 maintain the power output but has more freedom regarding signal form.
 If supported by the driver, the signal can be optimized, for example to improve
