[PATCH 6.18 035/175] hwmon: (gpio-fan) Allow to stop FANs when CONFIG_PM is disabled

commit 52fb36a5f9c15285b7d67c0ff87dc17b3206b5df upstream.

When CONFIG_PM is disabled, the GPIO controlled FANs can't be stopped by
using the sysfs attributes since commit 0d01110e6356 ("hwmon: (gpio-fan)
Add regulator support").

Using either the 'pwm1' or the 'fan1_target' attribute fails the same way:

$ echo 0 > /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon1/pwm1
ash: write error: Function not implemented
$ echo 0 > /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon1/fan1_target
ash: write error: Function not implemented

Both commands were working flawlessly before the mentioned commit.

The issue happens because pm_runtime_put_sync() returns with -ENOSYS
when CONFIG_PM is disabled, and the set_fan_speed() function handles
this as an error.

In order to restore the previous behaviour, change the error check in
the set_fan_speed() function to ignore the -ENOSYS error code.
