Pwm?_enable = 0 means disable the fan.  The driver makes no distinction
between the 3 pwm settings whatsoever but remember, pwm 1 & 2 are 4-wire
interfaces and pwm 3 is a 3 wire interface.  Also, there are other
settings that can affect what happens to the fan when "disabled".  Take
a look at the datasheet
(http://www.andigilog.com/downloads/aSC7621_70A06010.pdf) and in the
mean time, I'll run another set of tests.  Also, on 1 of my 3 boards,
the pwm1 output is inverted.  I.E.  0=full, 255=off.  Don't ask me why.
I have to set pwm1_invert=1 to get it to behave correctly.

Unfortunately, this is a question for Intel and Andigilog.  I see the
same.
