Summary
i.MXRT FlexPWM has two outputs per PWM submodule, called A and B, respectively. Output B can be set to be complementary output for Output A or independent. Later is increasing the number of channels per FlexPWM module from 4 to 8 if CONFIG_PWM_MULTICHAN is used. This PR is supporting this independent mode. If complementary mode is used, channel number of Output A must be used.
Impact
CONFIG_PWM_NCHANNELS must be set to 8 (maximum) and numbering of channels must be according, i.e. 1 to 8. Even if submodules are excluded with configuration. THis means if only MOD3 is used in FlexPWM1, usable channels are 5 and 6.
Testing
Tested with rgbled example on EdgePro1, where FlexPWM2 MOD3 Out B is used for Red and FlexPWM1 MOD4 Out A and Out B is used for Green and Blue.
