Seems incomplete. For example, fan tachs have different number of
pulses per revolution, don't you need to know that too?


Per Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-class-hwmon:

What:           /sys/class/hwmon/hwmonX/fanY_pulses
Description:
                Number of tachometer pulses per fan revolution.

                Integer value, typically between 1 and 4.

                RW

                This value is a characteristic of the fan connected to the
                device's input, so it has to be set in accordance with the fan
                model.

                Should only be created if the chip has a register to configure
                the number of pulses. In the absence of such a register (and
                thus attribute) the value assumed by all devices is 2 pulses
                per fan revolution.

We only expect the property (and attribute) to exist if the controller
supports it.
