Hi Rob, Guenter, Krzysztof, I want to align with the implementation for the fan dt schema. Current implementation is intending to use fan-common.yaml only for the purpose of defining fan property as I felt this is the best way. This is how other drivers have approached(eg: leds) With this fan-controller driver will configure the chip based on fan characteristics accordingly. target-rpm/default-rpm is included in it to enable driver configure fan controllers during driver probe. Fan datasheets do specify the pwm frequency used to evaluate its characteristic. That is the reason I've included pwm-frequency here which fan-controller drivers can use & initialize pwm frequency accordingly. I'm ok with other approaches so do provide your perspective.
