Add support for custom fan curves found on some ASUS ROG laptops. These laptops have the ability to set a custom curve for the CPU and GPU fans via two ACPI methods. This patch adds two pwm<N> attributes to the hwmon sysfs, pwm1 for CPU fan, pwm2 for GPU fan. Both are under the hwmon of the name `asus_custom_fan_curve`. There is no safety check of the set fan curves - this must be done in userspace. The fans have settings [1,2,3] under pwm<N>_enable: 1. Enable and write settings out 2. Disable and use factory fan mode 3. Same as 2, additionally restoring default factory curve. Use of 2 means that the curve the user has set is still stored and won't be erased, but the laptop will be using its default auto-fan mode. Re-enabling the manual mode then activates the curves again. Notes: - pwm<N>_enable = 0 is an invalid setting. - pwm is actually a percentage and is scaled on writing to device.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
