Update the description with a brief about how PWM is generated using
OMAP DM timer and add limitations for the PWM generations. Also add a
link to the reference manual.

* Description:
* This file is the core OMAP support for the generic, Linux
- * PWM driver / controller, using the OMAP's dual-mode timers.
+ * PWM driver / controller, using the OMAP's dual-mode timers
+ * with a timer counter that goes up. When it overflows it gets
+ * reloaded with the load value and the pwm output goes up.
+ * When counter matches with match register, the output goes down.
+ * Reference Manual: http://www.ti.com/lit/ug/spruh73q/spruh73q.pdf
+ *
+ * Limitations:
+ * - When PWM is stopped, timer counter gets stopped immediately. This
+ * doesn't allow the current PWM period to complete and stops abruptly.
