Hi Peter,

I really was hoping that we didn't have to export this function, but I
can't think of any other way to solve the problem at hand either. I'd
prefer to rename the function to of_pwm_get() at the same time to keep
consistent with other subsystems that provide similar functionality.
Also, please use all-caps for PWM in prose. And while at it, you can
drop the "core:" and "so client drivers can also use it" from the
subject line.

This is missing an EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL.

While at it, maybe rename the con_id parameter as well to match
pwm_get().
