This is RPM to be set during probe if desired.

I think it is really, 'target RPM if not already configured' which could
be keep the setting from a register (e.g. what the bootloader set) or
perhaps you already have temperature information to use...
Yes. missed it. It should be target-rpm will correct this. in next version.

As I said before, the PWM binding handles these 2 settings. Use it. Yes,
it's a bit of an overkill when the child is the consumer of the parent.
Until some 'clever' h/w engineer decides to use one of the PWMs for
something else like a backlight.
I would like you to consider this as something recommended by fan datasheet for the given fan instance. This info can be used by fan controller driver to configure PWM source/provider accordingly.

If you still feel that may not make sense then I'll remove this property.


Thanks,
