Another note: On one of my systems, reading the current fan speed literally halts
the entire system for a second or two. Given this, is the above really necessary ?
It might be better to just try to use the nominal fan speeds and only read
the actual fan speed if that doesn't work.

I wonder if it would help to detect the maximum fan speed first. Once that
is known, it should be possible to just read the nominal fan speed once,
for the known maximum speed. With this, the 'val' loop here would be unnecessary.
