The per-channel data is available directly in the driver data struct. So
use it without making use of pwm_[gs]et_chip_data().
The relevant change introduced by this patch to lpc18xx_pwm_disable() at
the assembler level (for an arm lpc18xx_defconfig build) is:
push {r3, r4, r5, lr}
mov r4, r0
mov r0, r1
mov r5, r1
bl 0 <pwm_get_chip_data>
ldr r3, [r0, #0]
changes to
ldr r3, [r1, #8]
push {r4, lr}
add.w r3, r0, r3, lsl #2
ldr r3, [r3, #92] ; 0x5c
So this reduces stack usage, has an improved runtime behavior because of
better pipeline usage, doesn't branch to an external function and the
generated code is a bit smaller occupying less memory.
The codesize of lpc18xx_pwm_probe() is reduced by 32 bytes.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
