pwm: Prevent a glitch for legacy drivers

If a running PWM is reconfigured to disabled calling the ->config()
callback before disabling the hardware might result in a glitch where
the (maybe) new period and duty_cycle are visible on the output before
disabling the hardware.

So handle disabling before calling ->config(). Also exit early in this case
which is possible because period and duty_cycle don't matter for disabled PWMs.
In return however ->config has to be called even if state->period ==
pwm->state.period && state->duty_cycle != pwm->state.duty_cycle because setting
these might have been skipped in the previous call.
