I have done a bit of investigation on which cooling devices correspond to different fan speeds. IMO the cooling device to trip point mappings are wrong (do not change fan speed linearly with accordance to temperature/trip points).
And I've also found that thermal zone 5 temperature corresponds exactly to the processor fan speed. This should definitely be reported as fan speed, not temperature.
Should I also detail my findings here, or post them to the kernel mailing list?
Thank you. I will report the bug upstream.
