This patch series aims to add fan control support to the acer-wmi
driver. The patches are compile-tested only and need to be tested
on real hardware to verify that they actually work.
I CCed three users who requested support for this feature. I would be
very happy if one of you could test those patches and report back.
Changes since v3:
- fix error in WMID_gaming_set_fan_behavior()
Changes since v2:
- get rid of nested bit masks
Changes since v1:
- remove unnecessary blank line
Changes since RFC v2:
- improve error handling when setting fan behavior
- Add Reviewed-by tags
- whitelist PHN16-72
Changes since RFC v1:
- remove duplicate include and replace hwmon_pwm_mode with
hwmon_pwm_enable in second patch

platform/x86: acer-wmi: Enable fan control for PH16-72 and PT14-51

After studying the linuwu_sense driver
(https://github.com/0x7375646F/Linuwu-Sense) i was able to understand
the meaning of the SetGamingFanBehavior() WMI method:
- the first 16-bit are a bitmap of all fans affected by a fan behavior
change request.
- the next 8 bits contain four fan mode fields (2-bit), each being
associated with a bit inside the fan bitmap.
There are three fan modes: auto, turbo and custom.
Use this newfound knowledge to fix the turbo fan handling by setting
the correct bits before calling SetGamingFanBehavior(). Also check
the result of the WMI method call and return an error should the ACPI
firmware signal failure.

Add support for controlling the fan speed using the
SetGamingFanSpeed() and GetGamingFanSpeed() WMI methods.
This feature is only enabled if the machine has ACER_CAP_PWM enabled
and depend on ACER_CAP_HWMON for detecting the number of available
fans.

Both machines support the necessary WMI methods, so enable fan control
for them.

A user reported that the config of the PH16-72 also works on
the PHN16-72. Add support for this new device as well.

Hello,
I've tested your patch, had a weird thing where i need to reboot to windows
first to make fan control works again, but it all works well now, both CPU and
GPU fan control works just fine.
Thanks,

Good work, the reason for this fan control glitch could be that the faulty version of the acpi-wmi
driver left the ACPI firmware interface in an invalid state.
Ilpo, what do you thing about this series?

Thank you for your contribution, it has been applied to my local
review-ilpo-next branch. Note it will show up in the public
platform-drivers-x86/review-ilpo-next branch only once I've pushed my
local branch there, which might take a while.
