The HLCDC IP available in some Atmel SoCs (i.e. sam9x5i.e. at91sam9n12, at91sam9x5 family or sama5d3 family) provide a PWM device.
The DT bindings used for this PWM device is following the default 3 cells bindings described in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/pwm/pwm.txt.

+The Atmel HLCDC PWM is subdevice of the HLCDC MFD device. +See ../mfd/atmel-hlcdc.txt for more details.
+Required properties:
- compatible: value should be one of the following:
- "atmel,hlcdc-pwm"
- pinctr-names: the pin control state names. Should contain "default".
- pinctrl-0: should contain the pinctrl states described by pinctrl
- default.
- #pwm-cells: should be set to 3. This PWM chip use the default 3 cells
- bindings defined in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/pwm/pwm.txt.
- The first cell encodes the PWM id (0 is the only acceptable value here,
- because the chip only provide one PWM).
- The second cell encodes the PWM period in nanoseconds.
- The third cell encodes the PWM flags (the only supported flag is
- PWM_POLARITY_INVERTED)
Given that this already refers to the default 3 cells binding it doesn't need to repeat part of the contents of pwm.txt.
Given that pwm.txt states:
pwm-specifier : array of #pwm-cells specifying the given PWM (controller specific)
I'd leave it here. Just because pwm.txt gives an example of a controller specific meaning for the pwm cells, I don't think we should rely on it everywhere.
Mark.
