From e0d3f7cb26063898a14fee2fea7d38fc8ceeb89a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Armin Wolf Date: Sun, 10 Apr 2022 18:39:35 +0200 Subject: hwmon: (dell-smm) Add cooling device support Until now, only the temperature sensors where exported thru the thermal subsystem. Export the fans as "dell-smm-fan[1-3]" too to make them available as cooling devices. Also update Documentation and fix a minor issue with the alphabetic ordering of the includes.
