Thank Krzysztof! I will update node name is "fan-controller" in PATCH v2.

Thank Krzysztof!

I checked on lore.kernel.org but no submit is in-progress for that. I'll 
submit new the binding document for max31790.

Now, Do I need to remove the "[PATCH 2/4] ARM: dts: aspeed: mtmitchell: 
Add I2C Fan" from PATCH v2?

And will push again "ARM: dts: aspeed: mtmitchell: Add I2C Fan" commit 
once max31790 binding document was available upstream.
