When the driver tries to detect the fan multiplier during
module initialisation, it issues one SMM call for each fan.
Those SMM calls are however redundant and also try to query
fans which may not be present.
Fix that by detecting the fan multiplier during hwmon
initialisation when no extra SMM calls are needed.
Also dont assume the last nominal speed entry to be the
biggest and instead check all entries.

The default values for i8k_fan_mult and i8k_fan_max
should be assigend only if the values specified as
module params or in DMI are invalid/missing.

If a particular SMM call takes a very long time to execute,
the user might experience audio problems. Print a warning
if a particular SMM call took over 0.250 seconds to execute,
so the user can check whether or not possible audio problems
are caused by this driver.
