Awesome, great to compare notes. I wasn't aware of this prior work.

I don't have a JG925A to test so I wasn't game to submit for that.
Everything else looks similar which is nice.

So your feedback here is to get this merged, I should change the fan control into the DTS as you have done?
I just checked that the fan GPIO pin was the same as the JG922A that was already merged.
(i.e. under 03_gpio_switches) 
I was also unaware that there was another GPIO for fan failure so that's great news.

I guess then we should also submit a patch so the default for the JG922A is also max?
Then the user can elect to turn down the fans?

Cheers,
Evan.
