Currently, during startup, the fan is set to its maximum RPM by default,
which may not be suitable for all use cases.
This patch introduces support for specifying a target RPM via the Device
Tree property "target-rpm".

Changes:
- Added `target_rpm` field to `max6639_data` structure to store the
  target RPM for each fan channel.
- Modified `max6639_probe_child_from_dt()` to read the `"target-rpm"`
  property from the Device Tree and set `target_rpm` accordingly.
- Updated `max6639_init_client()` to use `target_rpm` to compute the
  initial PWM duty cycle instead of defaulting to full speed (120/120).

Behavior:
- If `"target-rpm"` is specified, the fan speed is set accordingly.
- If `"target-rpm"` is not specified, the previous behavior (full speed
  at startup) is retained.

This allows better control over fan speed during system initialization.

Unless I am missing something, that is not really correct. See below.

If there is no max-rpm property, or if there is no devicetree support,
target_rpm[i] is still 0.

If there is neither max-rpm nor target-rpm, target_rpm[i] is still 0.

If there is no devicetree support, or if neither max-rpm nor target-rpm are
provided, target_duty will be 0, and the fans will stop.

Maybe my interpretation is wrong, but I think both target_rpm[] and rpm_range[]
will need to be initialized. Also, it seems to me that there will need to be an
upper bound for target_rpm[]; without it, it is possible that target_duty > 120,
which would probably not be a good idea.

Yes you're right. I missed it in my analysis.

Here is the logic that would address:
                target_rpm = 120;
                /* Set PWM based on target RPM if specified */
                if (data->target_rpm[i] != 0 &&
                    data->target_rpm[i]  <= rpm_ranges[data->rpm_range[i]]) {

                        target_duty = 120 * data->target_rpm[i] /
rpm_ranges[data->rpm_range[i]];
                }

Please let me know your thoughts & suggestions.

I would prefer if target_rpm[] and rpm_range[] were pre-initialized with default
values in the probe function. That would avoid runtime checks.

rpm_range is pre-initialized to 4000 RPM [1]
I can also init target_rpm[] to 4000 RPM as default along with above init.

But still there might be a case wherein DT doesn't provide max-rpm but
target-rpm is set to greater than 4000 RPM
Thus there will be a need to check to cover this kind of scenario.

Please let me know your thoughts & will implement that.

You'll need to validate target_rpm against max-rpm either way,
to make sure that target_rpm <= max_rpm.
