    ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: add sysfs support to fan subdriver · fe98a52c
    Henrique de Moraes Holschuh authored
    Export sysfs attributes to monitor and control the internal thinkpad fan
    (some thinkpads have more than one fan, but thinkpad-acpi doesn't support
    the second fan yet).  The sysfs interface follows the hwmon design guide
    for fan devices.
    
    Also, fix some stray "thermal" files in the fan procfs description that
    have been there forever, and officially support "full-speed" as the name
    for the PWM-disabled state of the fan controller to keep it in line with
    the hwmon interface.  It is much better a name for that mode than the
    unobvious "disengaged" anyway.  Change the procfs interface to also accept
    full-speed as a fan level, but still report it as disengaged for backwards
    compatibility.
