> On the Dell Precision 3650 Tower, the EC ignores fan speed writes unless
> automatic BIOS fan control is disabled first. The I8K_FAN_30A3_31A3 SMM
> code pair works on this machine through the WMI-SMM backend: after
> writing 1 to pwm1_enable, all three fans (CPU, front, top) accept the
> three fan states and report matching RPM, and writing 2 hands control
> back to the BIOS. I8K_FAN_34A3_35A3 was tested as well and also works;
> I8K_FAN_30A3_31A3 is used since it matches recent OEM software.
>
> Tested on BIOS 1.48.0 with kernels 7.0.0-30 and 7.0.0-31 (Ubuntu 26.04).
