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

There's a common fan binding now (or pending). You should use that and
this property won't be needed.

Thank Rob,

I checked in the Documentation/devicetree/bindings/hwmon/fan-common.yaml. I found the tach-ch property, but it seems define the tach channel used for fan.

  tach-ch:
    description:
      The tach channel used for the fan.
    $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/uint8-array

I would like to define a new vendor property to configure the PWM-OUT pin to become a TACH-IN pin. So I introduce the "maxim,pwmout-pin-as-tach-input" property. Please help me share your comments!
