[PATCH] platform/x86: thinkpad_acpi: Fix fan speed reporting on Edge E330

[Andrew Onyshchuk]

The ThinkPad Edge E330 with H3 firmware uses the non-standard EC fan
register block. Without a matching quirk, thinkpad_acpi reads the legacy
tachometer registers and reports 0 RPM.

Add the H3 BIOS family to TPACPI_FAN_NS so the driver reads the fan
period from EC register 0x95 using the existing non-standard reporting
path.

Tested on a ThinkPad Edge E330 with BIOS H3ET77WW and EC H3EC35WW.

Afraid this platform is old enough (~14 years I believe?) that I have no easy way to confirm if it's correct or not - so glad you figured it out!

Thank you for your contribution, it has been applied to my local
review-ilpo-next branch. Note it will show up in the public
platform-drivers-x86/review-ilpo-next branch only once I've pushed my
local branch there, which might take a while.

FYI [if applicable to your patch], as per Linus' policy change, also
fixes are mostly routed through for-next unless the fix is for a
commit introduced in the most recent cycle or is clearly a regression
fix.
