@@ -15,3 +15,6 @@ The driver implements a simple interface for driving a fan connected to
a PWM output. It uses the generic PWM interface, thus it can be used with
a range of SoCs. The driver exposes the fan to the user space through
the hwmon's sysfs interface.

+The fan rotation speed returned via the optional 'fan1_input' is extrapolated
+from the sampled interrupts from the tachometer signal within 1 second.
