I would think that pwmconfig complains that it finds 3-pins fans set up
to PWM mode (4-pins required)
Your UEFI propose either to setup your fans globally or individually
and I think that by default the setup is global. This would probably be
fine il all your fans were either 3-pins (DC mode) or 4-pins
(preferably PWM mode but DC mode is possibility). But you have both
installed. A solution could be, in your UEFI, to individually set up
all your 4-pins fans to PWM mode, while setting up all your 3-pins fans
to DC mode.
