Subject: [PATCH v2 1/1] hwmon: (dell-smm) Add Dell G15 5510 to fan control whitelist

After running a system upgrade on a Dell G15 5510 (kernel upgraded from
6.17.8 to 6.18.4), the fans would spin at maximum speed whenever the AC
power cable was plugged. I copied and adopted the fan control whitelist
entry for the Dell G15 5511 to enable manual fan control.
