Thank Krzysztof. I'll try to explain in detail each patch in v2.

I'm also discussing with Rob Herring that on patch 3/3, I checked in the
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/hwmon/fan-common.yaml. I found the
tach-ch property, but it seems to define the tach channel used for the
fan. It does not match my purpose. I want to configure the PWM-OUT pin
to become a TACH-IN pin. I wonder if I can use the tach-ch property for
my purpose.
