pwm: pca9685: Don't disable hardware in .free()

It's the responsibility of the consumer to disable the hardware before
it's released. And there are use cases where it's beneficial to keep the
PWM on, e.g. to keep a backlight on before kexec()ing into a new kernel.

Even if it would be considered right to disable on pwm_put(), this
should be done in the core and not each individual driver. So drop the
hardware access in .free().
