Subject: [PATCH 2/4] hwmon: (dell-smm) Move clamping of fan speed out of i8k_set_fan()
Date: Wed, 17 Sep 2025 20:10:34 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250917181036.10972-3-W_Armin@gmx.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250917181036.10972-1-W_Armin@gmx.de>
Currently i8k_set_fan() clamps the fan speed before performing the
SMM call to ensure that the speed is not negative and not greater than
i8k_fan_max. This however is mostly unnecessary as the hwmon and
thermal interfaces alread ensure this. Only the legacy ioctl interface
does not ensure that the fan speed passed to i8k_set_fan() does meet
the above criteria.
Move the clamping out of i8k_set_fan() and into the legacy ioctl
handler to prepare for future changes.
