Conceptually this patch must go in before the change to the driver.
Otherwise the pwms are not usable with only patch 1 applied which breaks
bisectability.

The driver should have backwards compatibility to older DTs. So that would need
to be fixed in the driver not in the patch order of the series.

Right you are. Bisectability is a reason to not apply the patches in the
order as is, but given that you already requested backwards
compatibility the bisectability will be fixed en passant.
