hwmon: (lm85) Add support for ADT7468 high-frequency PWM mode
The ADT7468 supports a high-frequency PWM output mode where all PWM outputs are driven by a 22.5 kHz clock. Add support for this mode, and document it, as it may surprise the user that setting one PWM output frequency also affects the other PWM outputs.

104The ADT7468 has a high-frequency PWM mode, where all PWM outputs are
105driven by a 22.5 kHz clock. This is a global mode, not per-PWM output,
106which means that setting any PWM frequency above 11.3 kHz will switch
107all 3 PWM outputs to a 22.5 kHz frequency. Conversely, setting any PWM
108frequency below 11.3 kHz will switch all 3 PWM outputs to a frequency
109between 10 and 100 Hz, which can then be tuned separately.
