+Description:
+------------
+This driver implements support for Microchip EMC2301/2/3/5 RPM-based PWM Fan Controller.
+The EMC2305 Fan Controller supports up to 5 independently controlled PWM fan drives.
+Fan rotation speeds are reported in RPM.
+The driver supports the RPM-based PWM control to keep a fan at the desired speed.
+The driver provides the possibility to have one common PWM interface for all FANs
+or up to the maximum available or configured independent PWMs.
+
+The driver provides the following sysfs interfaces in hwmon subsystem:
+
+================= == ===================================================
+fan[1-5]_fault RO files for tachometers TACH1-TACH5 fault indication
+fan[1-5]_input RO files for tachometers TACH1-TACH5 input (in RPM)
+pwm[1-5] RW file for fan[1-5] target duty cycle (0..255)
+================= == ===================================================
+
+sysfs interfaces in thermal subsystem:
+
+================= == ========================================================================
+cur_state RW file for the current cooling state of the cooling device (0..max_state)
+max_state RO file for the maximum cooling state of the cooling device
+================= == ========================================================================
