Add support for the "temperature mode" fan speed control. In this mode,
the user can define 3 temperature/speed trip points, and the chip will
set the speed automatically according to the temperature changes.

We have the following naming convention documented in
Documentation/hwmon/sysfs-interface for fault files:
in[0-*]_input_fault
fan[1-*]_input_fault
temp[1-*]_input_fault
Some drivers follow this convention (lm63, lm83, lm90, smsc47m192).
However some drivers omit the "input" part and create files named
fan1_fault (pc87427) or temp1_fault (dme1737). And the new "generic"
libsensors follows this second (non-standard) convention, so it fails
to report fault conditions for drivers which follow the standard.
We want a single naming scheme, and everyone seems to prefer the
shorter variant, so let's go for it.

Make note of the legacy "probe-the-hardware" drivers, and some APIs that

The initial version of the thinkpad-acpi sysfs interface (not yet released
in any stable mainline kernel) made liberal use of named sysfs groups, in
order to get the attributes more organized.
This proved to be a really bad design decision. Maybe if attribute groups
were as flexible as a real directory, and if binary attributes were not
second-class citizens, the idea of subdirs and named groups would not have
been so bad.
This patch makes all the thinkpad-acpi sysfs groups anonymous (thus
removing the subdirs), adds the former group names as a prefix (so that
hotkey/enable becomes hotkey_enable for example), and updates the
documentation.
These changes will make the thinkpad-acpi sysfs ABI a lot easier to
maintain.

Now...
acpi_osi="string" adds the interface string, and
acpi_osi="!string" invalidates the pre-defined interface string
eg. acpi_osi="!Windows 2006"
