Subject: [PATCH v2 0/6] platform/x86: lenovo-wmi-{capdata,other}: Add HWMON for fan speed

Lenovo WMI Other Mode interface also supports querying or setting fan
speed RPM. This capability is decribed by LENOVO_CAPABILITY_DATA_00.
Besides, LENOVO_FAN_TEST_DATA provides reference data for self-test of
cooling fans, including minimum and maximum fan speed RPM.

This patchset turns lenovo-wmi-capdata01 into a unified driver (now
named lenovo-wmi-capdata) for LENOVO_CAPABILITY_DATA_{00,01} and
LENOVO_FAN_TEST_DATA; then adds HWMON support for lenovo-wmi-other:

 - fanX_enable: enable/disable the fan (tunable)
 - fanX_input: current RPM
 - fanX_max: maximum RPM
 - fanX_min: minimum RPM
 - fanX_target: target RPM (tunable)

This implementation doesn't require all capability data to be available,
and is capable to expose interfaces accordingly:

 - Having LENOVO_CAPABILITY_DATA_00: exposes fanX_{enable,input,target}
 - Having LENOVO_CAPABILITY_DATA_01: exposes firmware_attributes
 - Having LENOVO_FAN_TEST_DATA: exposes fanX_{max,min}

Changes in v2:
- Add a workaround for ACPI methods that return a 4B buffer for u32
  (thanks Armin Wolf)
- Fix function documentation (thanks kernel test bot)
- Reword documentation (thanks Derek J. Clark)
- Squash min/max reporting patch into the initial HWMON one (ditto)
- Query 0x04050000 for interface availability (ditto)
  - New parameter "expose_all_fans" to skip this check
- Enforce min/max RPM constraint on set (ditto)
  - New parameter "relax_fan_constraint" to disable this behavior
  - Drop parameter "ignore_fan_cap", superseded by the next one
  - New parameter "expose_all_fans" to expose fans w/o such data
- Assume auto mode on probe (ditto)
- Do not register HWMON device if no fan can be exposed
- fanX_target: Return -EBUSY instead of raw target value when fan stops
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20251019210450.88830-1-i@rong.moe/
