RPM-based? So there is a tach signal too? Don't those need the number of 
pulses per revolution that the fan provides.

To repeat what I say for every fan controller binding now, until there's 
a common binding to describe fan controllers, fans and their 
relationship to each other, I'm not signing off on any fan binding 
doing its own thing.

Hi,

Sorry for long delay in getting back to you.
Please see below.

Thanks,

It's not relevant. The driver implements Direct setting mode according 
to the Datasheet: https://www.microchip.com/en-us/product/EMC2305
I can add this note to the documentation patch.

I'm confused here as I thought that I already changed to common fan-controller with advice of 
Gunter in patch series V3.
Do you mean that we should use some common FAN/PWM/ TACHO etc. generic binding
mechanism that fits all drivers?
Could you advise if it's already existed and reference to example?
If it doesn't exist, it'll be too complicated to provide such a new generic description within 
the submission of a driver for EMC2305 device.
We can just completely remove OF interface and pass the necessary configuration through
the platform data.

For the binding, it doesn't matter what a driver currently implements. 
That's one driver at one point in time. Bindings shouldn't be evolving 
and need to support more than 1 OS.

The binding needs to be able to describe the h/w. If there's a tach 
connection, you need to describe that and the properties of the fan's 
tach pulses.

It doesn't exist. Probably the closest binding to something as a basis 
for something common is npcm750-pwm-fan.txt.

That's your choice...
