Before commit 86585c61972f ("hwmon: (pwm-fan) stop using legacy PWM functions and some cleanups") pwm_apply_state() was called unconditionally in pwm_fan_probe(). In this commit this direct call was replaced by a call to __set_pwm(ct, MAX_PWM) which however is a noop if ctx->pwm_value already matches the value to set. After probe the fan is supposed to run at full speed, and the internal driver state suggests it does, but this isn't asserted and depending on bootloader and pwm low-level driver, the fan might just be off. So drop setting pwm_value to MAX_PWM to ensure the check in __set_pwm doesn't make it exit early and the fan goes on as intended.

I'll apply this patch, but _please_ version your patches in the future and provide a change log.
