^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 4) This driver enables the use of a PWM module to drive a fan. It uses the
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 5) generic PWM interface thus it is hardware independent. It can be used on
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 6) many SoCs, as long as the SoC supplies a PWM line driver that exposes
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 7) the generic PWM API.

^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 14) The driver implements a simple interface for driving a fan connected to
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 15) a PWM output. It uses the generic PWM interface, thus it can be used with
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 16) a range of SoCs. The driver exposes the fan to the user space through
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 17) the hwmon's sysfs interface.

^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 19) The fan rotation speed returned via the optional 'fan1_input' is extrapolated
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 20) from the sampled interrupts from the tachometer signal within 1 second.
