That adds a lot of complexity to the driver. I am missing the benefits.
You are supposed to explain why you are making changes, not just that
you are making them.

Why are you making those changes ?
Sure.
This is to align with fan-common.yml wherein chip pwm is exposed.
I'll update commit message


Adding lots of complexity to a driver just to have it match a yaml file ?
I'll want to see a use case. Explain why you need the pwm exposed.
"because the yaml file demands it" is not a use case.
