Subject: [PATCH 4.2.y-ckt 228/305] drm/nouveau/bios/fan: hardcode the fan mode to linear

4.2.8-ckt2 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

---8<------------------------------------------------------------

From: Martin Peres <martin.peres@...e.fr>

commit a814a29d7bbfdfe56fe1bb9641a185077066eb9f upstream.

This is an oversight that made use of the trip-point-based fan managenent on
cards that never expose those. This led the fan to stay at fan_min.

Fortunately, the emergency code would kick when the temperature would reach
90°C.
