hwmon: (aspeed-g6-pwm-tacho): Support for ASPEED g6 PWM/Fan tach
The driver support two functions: PWM and Tachometer. The PWM feature can
handle up to 16 output ports, while the Tachometer can monitor to up to 16
input ports as well. This driver implements them by exposing two kernel
subsystems: PWM and HWMON. The PWM subsystem can be utilized alongside
existing drivers for controlling elements such as fans (pwm-fan.c),
beepers (pwm-beeper.c) and so on. Through the HWMON subsystem, the driver
provides sysfs interfaces for fan.
