I tought the same. But until now the value logged is an integer value
between 1 and 11. So I preferred to leave it as is.

The thing that I can do is to *add* a further attribute called pwm1.
( I have to check how adm1031.c computes its pwm), because is a 
more standard interface.

I even thought to allow to change the fan speed from user space....

The really question is what we should do if the 2nd device_create_file()
would fail: we should fails the driver initialization ? or we should
continue, because even if there aren't some sysfs attributes the driver
work enough ?
