    pwm: Set class for exported channels in sysfs · 7e5d1fd7

    Notifications for devices without bus or class set get dropped by
    dev_uevent_filter(). Adding the class to the exported child matches
    what the GPIO subsystem is doing.
    
    With this change exporting a channel triggers a udev event, which
    gives userspace a chance to fixup permissions and makes it possible
    for non-root users to make use of the PWM subsystem.
