pwm: lpss: Clarify the bypass member semantics in struct pwm_lpss_boardinfo

Instead of an odd comment, cite the documentation, which says more clearly
what's going on with the programming flow on some of the Intel SoCs.

+	 * 2. Set the software update bit.
+	 * 3. Repeat the above steps for the next PWM module.
+	 *
+	 * + After setting PWMCTRL register's SW update bit, hardware automatically
+	 * deasserts the SW update bit after a brief delay. It was observed that
+	 * setting of PWM enable is typically done via read-modify-write of the PWMCTRL
+	 * register. If there is no/little delay between setting software update bit
+	 * and setting enable bit via read-modify-write, it is possible that the read
+	 * could return with software enable as 1. In that case, the last write to set
+	 * enable to 1 could also set sw_update to 1. If this happens, sw_update gets
+	 * stuck and the driver code can hang as it explicitly waits for sw_update bit
+	 * to be 0 after setting the enable bit to 1. To avoid this race condition,
+	 * SW should poll on the software update bit to make sure that it is 0 before
+	 * doing the read-modify-write to set the enable bit to 1.
+	 *
+	 * Also, we noted that if sw_update bit was set in step #1 above then when it
+	 * is set again in step #2, sw_update bit never gets cleared and the flow hangs.
+	 * As such, we need to make sure that sw_update bit is 0 when doing step #1.
