Then there is one more printk which prints fan state is on or off :

>dev_info(&device->dev, PREFIX "%s [%s] (%s)\n",
>         acpi_device_name(device), acpi_device_bid(device),

So if we drop the PREFIX and if some one wants to grep for this fan on/off , 
then how to do that ..
after removing PREFIX , in dmesg I am getting it as :
[    2.056204] fan PNP0C0B:00: Fan [FAN0] (off)
[    2.056225] fan PNP0C0B:01: Fan [FAN1] (off)
[    2.056245] fan PNP0C0B:02: Fan [FAN2] (off)
[    2.056263] fan PNP0C0B:03: Fan [FAN3] (off)
[    2.056283] fan PNP0C0B:04: Fan [FAN4] (off)
