So far the function would only change the state if the new
state is not equal to the old state. This was the case because
pwm_fan_state was set to pwm_fan_max_state, and the call to
thermal_cdev_update() and thus pwm_fan_set_cur_state() would
do nothing except update statistics. The old code _assumed_
that the current state is pwm_fan_max_state. The new code
enforces it. That is a substantial semantic change, and it
is not really reflected in the commit message. Is that really
what you want ? If so, the commit message needs to state that
and explain the rationale.

Thanks,
