Message-ID <[email protected]>
The spelling "Minumum" in the FanMinSpeed entry is intentionally kept
as-is because it reflects the actual string returned by the system BIOS.
Add an explanatory note to prevent future redundant spelling-fix submissions.

Thanks Mark and Jon for the context.

That makes total sense. I dropped the housekeeping typo fix for now to avoid
unnecessary churn, and this v4 keeps the BIOS spelling but adds the explicit
note documenting the firmware quirk as suggested.
