Thanks, patch looks good to me:

Reviewed-by: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@xxxxxxxxxx>

I expect Mark possibly coming-up with a better way to detect the number
of fans in a ThinkPad to take quite a while, so I've merged this for now
and then eventually we can replace it with a better fix if one shows up:

Thank you for your patch, I've applied this patch to my review-hans 
branch:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pdx86/platform-drivers-x86.git/log/?h=review-hans

Note it will show up in my review-hans branch once I've pushed my
local branch there, which might take a while.

Once I've run some tests on this branch the patches there will be
added to the platform-drivers-x86/for-next branch and eventually
will be included in the pdx86 pull-request to Linus for the next
merge-window.

Regards,

Hans
