hwmon: (it87) Validate auto pwm settings

Browse source 
Before switching to automatic fan control mode, make sure that all the
trip points make sense. Otherwise, the control loop could lead to
weird fan behavior.

@ -177,3 +177,7 @@ between trip point N and trip point N+1 then the PWM output value is
the one of trip point N. The automatic control mode is less flexible
than the manual control mode, but it reacts faster, is more robust and
doesn't use CPU cycles.
Trip points must be set properly before switching to automatic fan speed
control mode. The driver will perform basic integrity checks before
actually switching to automatic control mode.
