I would rewrite the commit log to:

	pwm: Remove redundant check in pwm_ops_check()

	ops->write_waveform is already known to be non-NULL so there is
	no need to check it a second time.

	The superflous check was introduced in commit 17e40c25158f
	("pwm: New abstraction for PWM waveforms").

	Signed-off-by: Ben Zong-You Xie <ben717@andestech.com>

to make the change more clear and also to not bother the stable team
with backporting the commit to stable.

Please confirm if you're ok with this change, then I cope for the update
while applying your change.

Best regards
Uwe

Thanks for confirming, I applied to

	https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ukleinek/linux.git pwm/for-next

. With the merge window opening in more than a week from now I will
include it in my MR for 6.20-rc1.

Best regards
Uwe
