@@ -15,3 +15,7 @@ The driver implements a simple interface for driving a fan connected to
 a PWM output. It uses the generic PWM interface, thus it can be used with
 a range of SoCs. The driver exposes the fan to the user space through
 the hwmon's sysfs interface.

+The measured fan rotation speed returned via 'fan1_input' is derived
+from the sampled interrupts from the tachometer signal by assuming
+a 2 pulse-per-revolution fan.
