[PATCH] platform/x86: hp-wmi: Hide bogus fan RPM on HP ENVY x360 13-bd0xxx

[Bani Brata]

On the HP ENVY x360 Convertible 13-bd0xxx (board 8824), the WMI
interfaces for reading fan speed (HPWMI_FAN_SPEED_GET_QUERY) return
zero-filled buffers regardless of the actual fan speed.

This results in the hp_wmi driver exposing `fan1_input` and `fan2_input`
nodes through hwmon that permanently report "0 RPM", which is misleading
and interferes with userspace sensor monitoring tools.

Add a DMI quirk to disable exposing the hwmon fan nodes on this specific
board.

[PATCH 2/2] platform/x86: hp-wmi: Add ACPI PWM fan control for HP ENVY 13-bd0xxx

[Bani Brata]

On the HP ENVY x360 Convertible 13-bd0xxx (board 8824), standard WMI
methods for fan speed control and RPM reporting do not function.

However, the DSDT exposes ACPI methods (\_SB.PC00.LPCB.EC0.FANG and FANW)
that allow reading and writing an 8-bit PWM level (0-255) to the EC.

This patch maps these ACPI methods to standard hwmon `pwm1` and
`pwm1_enable` nodes, allowing userspace tools to successfully control
the fan speed.

Please move variable declaration here and use __free() so you don't need

Why you need to do this under lock?

Also, use guard() instead of lock/unlock pair.

Aren't these same as ret >= 0. However, with guard(), you can reverse the 
logic and return error immediately so I don't think you need other if()s 
at all.

Here too, isn't it enough to begin the critical section only here?

Again, please use guard() instead.

This default path doesn't require taking the mutex.

So does this mean we can't get fan speeds at all with this device?

(This approach is written very specific to a model and should be 
generalized if there really isn't any way to get the speeds.)

I've Krishna Chomal who might have better ideas than me.

[PATCH] platform/x86: hp-wmi: Hide bogus fan RPM on HP ENVY x360 13-bd0xxx

[Bani Brata]

On the HP ENVY x360 Convertible 13-bd0xxx (board 8824), the WMI
interfaces for reading fan speed (HPWMI_FAN_SPEED_GET_QUERY) return
zero-filled buffers regardless of the actual fan speed.

This results in the hp_wmi driver exposing `fan1_input` and `fan2_input`
nodes through hwmon that permanently report "0 RPM", which is misleading
and interferes with userspace sensor monitoring tools.

Add a DMI quirk to disable exposing the hwmon fan nodes on this specific
board.
