The Asus WMI spec indicates that the function being controlled here is called "Fan Boost Mode". The user-facing documentation also calls it this. The spec uses the term "fan mode" is used to refer to other things, including functionality expected to appear on future products. We missed this before as we are not dealing with the most readable of specs, and didn't forsee any confusion around shortening the name. Rename "fan mode" to "fan boost mode" to improve consistency with the spec and to avoid a future naming conflict. There is no interface breakage here since this has yet to be included in an official kernel release. I also updated the kernel version listed under ABI accordingly.
