Allow the user to configure the fan to turn on / speed-up at lower
thresholds then before (20 degrees Celcius as minimum instead of 40) and
likewise also allow the user to delay the fan speeding-up till the
temperature hits 90 degrees Celcius (was 70).

My understanding of this tag that the report assumes a bug to fix
followed up with a corresponding Fixes tag.

Well in a way the old min/max for the limits being to strict a bug
and Jason pointed this out so I want to give him credit for that.

OTHO Fixes: feels a little bit to strong, even without a Cc: stable
tag, commits with Fixes: in there are almost guaranteed to be picked
up for the stable series and in this case that seems unnecessary to me.

If you do want to add a Fixes: tag then adding the one from patch 1/2
makes the most sense.

Regards,

Hans
