The max31790 supports six pins, which are dedicated PWM outputs. Any of the
six PWM outputs can also be configured to serve as tachometer inputs,
allowing for up to 12 tachometer fans to be monitored.
Add a new vendor-specific property, 'maxim,pwmout-pin-as-tach-input',
to allow PWMOUT to become a TACH input.
An array of six integers responds to six PWM channels for configuring
the PWM to TACH mode. When set to 0, the associated PWMOUT produces
a PWM waveform for control of fan speed. When set to 1, PWMOUT becomes
a TACH input.
