Daniel Lee 26923ea48e platform/x86: lg-laptop: Fix WMAB call in fan_mode_store()
[ Upstream commit 3ed17349f18774c24505b0c21dfbd3cc4f126518 ]

When WMAB is called to set the fan mode, the new mode is read from either
bits 0-1 or bits 4-5 (depending on the value of some other EC register).
Thus when WMAB is called with bits 4-5 zeroed and called again with
bits 0-1 zeroed, the second call undoes the effect of the first call.
This causes writes to /sys/devices/platform/lg-laptop/fan_mode to have
no effect (and causes reads to always report a status of zero).

Fix this by calling WMAB once, with the mode set in bits 0,1 and 4,5.
When the fan mode is returned from WMAB it always has this form, so
there is no need to preserve the other bits.  As a bonus, the driver
now supports the "Performance" fan mode seen in the LG-provided Windows
control app, which provides less aggressive CPU throttling but louder
fan noise and shorter battery life.

Also, correct the documentation to reflect that 0 corresponds to the
default mode (what the Windows app calls "Optimal") and 1 corresponds
to the silent mode.

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 reStructuredText 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.
